Amanda Anisimova Preview

Amanda Anisimova is coming off a straight-sets win over Canada’s Leylah Fernandez. The match took 15 games to decide and lasted 65 minutes.

In the victory, Anisimova hit 11 winners and 22 unforced errors. The American landed 69% of first serves in play and won 76% of first serve points (26/34).

Anisimova won 53% of second serve points (8/15) and saved both break points she faced on serve.

She won 54% of return points (22/41) and broke Fernandez’s serve four times. This is Anisimova’s best result in Doha having previously lost in the last 16 and second round.

Anisimova also improves to 6-2 for the season.

Marta Kostyuk Preview

Marta Kostyuk backed up her success over Coco Gauff by beating Poland’s Magda Linette in straight sets. The match took 18 games to decide and lasted an hour and 41 minutes.

Kostyuk had never scaled the second round in Doha but is through to her first quarterfinal at this tournament. She improves to 5-3 for the season.

Amanda Anisimova vs Marta Kostyuk Prediction

Kostyuk is seen as the value pick with some oddsmakers offering her at evens on the money line. She leads Anisimova 2-0 in their head-to-head, has a better ranking, and is probably the most improved player in the last 24 months by comparison.

But I like Anisimova here with the way she’s been playing this week. Powerful and extremely commanding and she’s beaten a former champion and a current top 10 player to get here. It’s the reason she’s the slight favorite. The head-to-head is also not a reliable measure of form in this rivalry considering that Anisimova was dealing with a few setbacks in the last two seasons. Give me Anisimova on ML.
