Anna Blinkova vs Dominika Salkova prediction
Anna Blinkova has struggled this season and is yet to get past the second-round of a tournament in 2026. She last competed in Bogota and won her first-round match against Robin Montgomery, but despite a great start in her next outing, she lost in three sets to Julia Riera. The Russian began her season with five straight losses, and her form has barely picked up since that point.
Dominika Salkova is now up to her highest ranking of 123 in the world. She has an ITF title this season, but she is still searching for her first tour-level victory of the season. Salkova was unable to make it out of qualifying at the Linz Open last week, while she only enters this tournament as a lucky loser, following a straight sets loss to Veronika Podrez.
Blinkova has been unconvincing this season, and Salkova will view this as a strong opportunity to advance to the next round of the competition.
