Dubai Championships 2025 Predictions & Betting Odds (2025 WTA Tour)

The WTA returns with another Middle East spectacle this week as the tour’s finest gather in Dubai for the WTA 2025 Dubai Championships. Check out our Dubai Tennis Championships 2025 predictions before the tournament begins.

WTA Dubai Championships 2025: Tennis Event Details

The WTA 2025 Dubai Tennis Championships is a WTA 1000 event. Aviation Club Tennis Centre in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, will be the venue of the competition, with the week-long action unfolding from February 16 to 22.

ℹ️ Tournament: 2025 WTA Tour (Masters 1000), 2025 Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships
🎾 Venue: Aviation Club Tennis Centre, Dubai, United Arab Emirates (Hard Surface)
🗓️ Dates: Sunday, February 16 to Saturday, February 22, 2025

Understanding the WTA Dubai Championships

The WTA Dubai Tennis Championships will be back for its 25th edition, having become a WTA 1000 fixture as of last year. Even though the likes of Madison Keys, Danielle Collins, and Barbora Krejcikova have withdrawn, the tournament will feature 27 of the top 30 names in the current WTA rankings. The eight top-seeded players will enjoy a first-round bye in the 56-player competition.

Tennis Dubai Championship History and Court Specifics

Justine Henin is the queen of Dubai with four WTA Dubai Championship titles to her name. Venus Williams trails her Dubai trophy count by a single title. Last year, Jasmine Paolini joined Sara Errani (2016) as the only Italians to win the Dubai singles title – coincidentally, Errani is now her doubles partner.

Now, it’s important to consider the court conditions to form the perfect 2025 WTA Dubai Champ predictions. After the slow grind of Doha, expect a noticeable uptick in speed this week. Dubai’s outdoor hard courts are rated medium-fast, and the stats support that claim.

Tennis Abstract’s analysis of last year’s men’s event in Dubai gave the courts a surface speed rating of 1.14. This rating, which is based on ace rates, suggests that the Dubai courts play about 14% faster than the tour average.

The faster conditions in Dubai should suit aggressive baseliners like Aryna Sabalenka and Elena Rybakina, as well as all-court players such as Iga Swiatek and Coco Gauff.

Aryna Sabalenka @ 4.33 (10/3)

Aryna Sabalenka suffered another premature exit last week, but the Belarusian still remains at the top of the tennis Dubai Championships betting tips.

Iga Swiatek @ 4.33 (10/3)

Iga Swiatek will look to bounce back from back-to-back semi-final disappointments. She has some of the most favorable 2025 tennis Dubai odds to clinch the title.

Coco Gauff @ 6.50 (11/2)

Coco Gauff could not improve on her poor Qatar Open record last week, but Dubai Tennis Championships 2025 predictions suggest the American has strong chances to win her maiden crown in Dubai.

Elena Rybakina @ 8.50 (15/2)

Elena Rybakina will be looking for her third WTA 1000 title in Dubai, and WTA Dubai Masters 2025 betting picks trends show she is one of the favorites in the title race.

Belinda Bencic @ 15.00 (14/1)

Betting apps in Qatar are considering Belinda Bencic a top contender in Dubai following her Abu Dhabi Open triumph.

Swiatek was not at her best in Doha, but the Polish star could be the player to beat in Dubai. The reigning world number two made her way to the semi-finals in Qatar, but an in-form Jelena Ostapenko – her kryptonite – proved too hot for her to handle. The Dubai Championships draw makes it unlikely for a rematch between the two.

The draw also makes sure that Swiatek will not have to lock horns against the likes of Sabalenka and Gauff before the final. The 24-year-old had a runner-up finish here two seasons ago, and after two deep runs recently, she seems set to end her wait for silverware.

Elise Mertens vs Paula Badosa: Badosa to Win 2-0 @ 2.40 (7/5)

Elise Mertens cruised to the second round with a 6-2, 6-2 victory against Leylah Fernandez. The Belgian will face a sterner test in the next stage, however, as number nine seed Paula Badosa waits for her in the round of 32. Badosa made a semi-final run in the Australian Open recently, even though she struggled in Abu Dhabi and Doha. Regardless, we see her beating world number 32 Mertens 2-0 in this match-up.

Belinda Bencic vs Emma Navarro: Bencic 2-0 @ 2.00 (1/1)

Event Prediction
Belinda Bencic vs Emma Navarro: Bencic 2-0

Bencic produced a stellar display against Aoi Ito to set up a meeting against number eight seed Emma Navarro. Navarro enters the fray as the underdog against the Abu Dhabi Open champion. She suffered a 2-0 defeat to Leylah Fernandez in her latest outing, so her chances of a statement victory in this one appear slim. So, we will back Bencic to pick up another 2-0 victory to continue her charge toward the title.

Swiatek should build on her recent near misses to produce a successful title run in Dubai. She has a favorable draw, which makes her the perfect choice for our tennis Dubai Championships betting tips. Also, Bencic should be able to dispatch Navarro in the second round and reward her backers with a decent return.
