Mirra Andreeva vs Linda Noskova preview
Mirra Andreeva of Russia and Linda Noskova of Czechia are set to square off in the third round of women’s singles action at the ongoing 2026 Brisbane International. The winner of the match will secure progress to the quarterfinals of the WTA 500 event.
Andreeva, the World No. 9, is the sixth seed in the Brisbane International’s women’s singles main draw. The 18-year-old received a first-round bye and needed three sets to overcome the challenge of home hope Olivia Gadecki in her second-round outing. Gadecki, a qualifier, won the first set 6-4, but couldn’t sustain her momentum, with Andreeva emerging victorious after winning the second and third sets 6-1 and 6-2 respectively.
Noskova, the current WTA No. 12, is the No. 9 seed in Brisbane, and the result of the Czech’s second-round match at the tournament was quite similar to the one registered by Andreeva. The 21-year-old defeated Magdalena Frech 6-7(5), 6-4, 6-4.

Mirra Andreeva vs Linda Noskova prediction
Andreeva and Noskova possess similar styles of play, with both players combining aggressive hitting from the baseline with commendable defensive attributes. As a result, their upcoming 2026 Brisbane International clash is likely to feature plenty of long rallies and a variety of drop shots and slices from both players.
The fact that Noskova is three years senior to Andreeva may benefit the Czech, as the Russian has, in multiple past matches, lost her cool on the court when things have gone against her. However, at the same time, Andreeva should be confident going into the match because of her superior head-to-head record.
Pick: Andreeva to win in three sets.
