The Kazakh powerhouse is on a mission this week, and is yet to drop a set up until this stage. On the other hand, Muchova has come through a pair of challenging outings to enter this <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/tennis\/\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>fixture<\/a>. The winner of this match will take on either Aryna Sabalenka or Madison Keys in the final four.<\/p><p>Rybakina and Muchova will stand across the net for the third time in their careers. The 26-year-old former Wimbledon champion has walked into the new campaign on the back of a destructive second half of 2025 &ndash; with titles in Ningbo and the WTA Finals. She boasts a career win-loss record of 392-162, including 11 singles trophies. The No. 3 seed this week in Brisbane, Rybakina defeated Zhang in the Round of 32 before thrashing Paula Badosa in the pre-quarterfinals.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Rybakina and Muchova also into the last 8. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/S7pcC5zD8j\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/S7pcC5zD8j<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Jos&eacute; Morgado (@josemorgado) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/josemorgado\/status\/2009132727006875676?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>January 8, 2026<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><p>Although she has already overcome some tough opposition, the Muchova challenge will be a tricky proposition for Rybakina. After all, the Czech superstar is a former Top-10 player and a three-time Grand Slam semifinalist. Currently ranked No. 20 in the world, the 29-year-old&rsquo;s solitary career singles title was at the 2019 Korea Open. Provided she has to topple the higher ranked starlet, Muchova will be forced to pull out all the shots in her weaponry.<\/p><p>\n\n\n            <div class=\"MvpBookmakerTable\" >\n

Rybakina has a powerful first serve which rendered her as the ace leader on the WTA Tour last year (516). She likes dominating her opponents from the baseline, and finds acute angles from difficult positions on the court.<\/p><p>If there is one person who can dismantle any x-factors possessed by the World No. 5, it is Muchova. An extremely deceptive customer with brilliant changes of pace, she will look to bring Rybakina forward with some drop shots and slices. Although she can be mistaken for a defensive player at times, the 11th seed wins over 75% service games on the circuit.
