Anna Kalinskaya and Simona Waltert meet in the second round of the 2025 Singapore Open on Wednesday, January 29, 2025. Here's our Anna Kalinskaya vs Simona Waltert prediction. This preview will also include an Anna Kalinskaya vs Simona Waltert pick.

 

Anna Kalinskaya Preview

Anna Kalinskaya is the top seed at the 2025 Singapore Open this week. The Russian started her campaign with a straight sets win over big-hitting Caroline Dolehide.

The match took 28 games to decide and about two and a half hours of playing time. Kalinskaya hit two double faults and landed 71% of first serves in play.

Kalinskaya won 54% of first serve points (34/63) and 65% of second serve points (17/26). She saved five of nine break points.

The 26-year-old won 46% of return points in the match (54/117) and broke Dolehide six times from 18 chances.

Having fallen to World No. 18 after the Australian Open, Kalinskaya can motor in the rankings with a title win.

 

Simona Waltert Preview

Simona Waltert is ranked 179th in the WTA rankings and started her 2025 Singapore Open with an upset win over Ajla Tomljanovic.

The Swiss won the match in two sets which is a surprising result, taking just 17 games. The match lasted an hour and 16 minutes.

In the victory, Waltert hit nine aces and two double faults. She landed 57% of first serves in play and won 87% of first serve points (26/30).

Waltert won 48% of second serve points (11/23) and saved three of four break points. She also won 48% of return points (24/50) and converted four of eight break points on Tomljanovic's serve.

This was Waltert's seventh win from 10 matches in 2025. She was a quarterfinalist at the Canberra ITF and came through qualifying in Singapore to reach the main draw.

Anna Kalinskaya vs Simona Waltert Prediction

No surprises here that Kalinskaya enters the match as the favorite at -263. Waltert is the underdog at +198. It shouldn't go unnoticed that Kalinskaya needed time to read the Dolehide serve before winning in three sets. Waltert offers even more attacking threat here not just with the serve which knocked off Tomljanovic but also her baseline discipline.

The Swiss has now won 16 of her last 23 matches indoors since the start of 2024. I could see this being another three-setter that Kalinskaya would have to navigate. This is the Russian's best chance to break her duck and win that elusive first WTA title as the top seed.
