Emma Raducanu vs Amanda Anisimova prediction
Emma Raducanu produced a fine display in round two as she defeated Anastasia Zakharova in straight sets. The British number one was always in control as she strolled to a 6-1 6-3 win after just one hour and 27 minutes.
She faces Amanda Anisimova next. The two-time Grand Slam finalist came from a set down to beat Anna Blinkova. Anisimova made a poor start and went 5-2 down, eventually losing the first set despite retrieving a few breaks back. However, it was complete domination after that for the American, as she conceded just the one game on her way to winning 5-7 6-1 6-0 after one hour and 39 minutes.
Raducanu actually leads the head-to-head 2-1, though Anisimova cruised to victory in their last match at the Canadian Open in 2025. The Brit will be the underdog for this match, though she will take encouragement from her display in the first round, while the slower conditions do neutralise some of Anisimova’s big weapons, such as her powerful groundstrokes.
