Anna Kalinskaya vs Jessica Bouzas Maneiro prediction

Anna Kalinskaya will look to celebrate her return to the top 30 with a good showing in Qatar.

The Russian has posted solid if unspectacular results so far this year and gave Iga Swiatek a mid-match hiding at the Australian Open before fading badly in the third round.

The world number 27 will face Jessica Bouzas Maneiro in her first outing since that Melbourne clash with Swiatek and will hope to harness the brilliance of that second set breadstick against the Pole and develop it into something more consistent here.

Bouzas Maneiro posted an impressive win over Coco Gauff in the United Cup at the start of the year but has since struggled to gain any traction with the three straight defeats.

The Spaniard may be slightly undercooked in terms of match sharpness and with the power off Kalinskaya likely to be key, it’s difficult to look beyond the Russian on a hardcourt.
