Anna Kalinskaya vs Anastasia Zakharova prediction

Anna Kalinskaya last competed at Indian Wells. The Russian won her first match against Zeynep Sonmez but then lost to Victoria Mboko in straight sets. That was the second time this year that Kalinskaya had been defeated by Mboko. She has picked up wins this season but is yet to make a key breakthrough, with her best result coming in Doha when she made the quarter-finals, losing to eventual winner Karolina Muchova.

Anastasia Zakharova is her second-round opponent, as Kalinskaya received a bye in round one. Zakharova came from a set down to beat Anna Bondar in her first-round encounter. She was broken when serving for the first set, with Bondar reeling off three games in a row to take the lead. Nevertheless, Zakharova fought back to win 5-7 6-3 6-1.

Kalinskaya’s aggressive game translates well to this fast surface, and she has managed to navigate her way through the opening rounds of most tournaments so far in 2026.
