Anhelina Kalinina vs Kamilla Rakhimova prediction
Anhelina Kalinina qualified for the Madrid Open as she got past Marina Bassols Ribera, and then came from a set down to beat 2017 US Open champion Sloane Stephens. She has excelled at lower-level events this season, advancing to four finals overall, winning two titles. Kalinina also notched up her first WTA main draw win of the season at the Linz Open two weeks ago.,
She goes up against Kamilla Rakhimova. She also competed in Linz, losing in the second-round against Ann Li. It was a familiar tale for Rakhimova, who ahs been unable to progress beyond that stage of any tournament that she’s competed in this season. She has a negative win-loss record in 2026, having lost 12 of her 23 matches up to this point.
Kalinina has momentum on her side after her exploits in qualifying, and she is certainly worth a set in this match against Rakhimova.
