Anna Kalinskaya will play against Barbora Krejcikova in the first round of the tournament in Guadalajara. The game will start on October 18 at 18:30.
Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction #1 – Handicap (-4) for Krejcikova – 1.72.
Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction #2 – Total Games Under 22 – 1.62.
In recent tournaments, Kalinskaya has twice withdrawn in the course of matches. Clearly, she is not fully ready to play in the tourney right now. In Guadalajara, Anna has a difficult opponent at the start, who is in great form. Given Anna’s problems, we don’t think she can play on equal terms with Barbora today.
The game won’t last long, given the Russian’s sub-optimal form.
Anna Kalinskaya has only played one tournament since the US Open. Last week, she played in the San Diego qualifying, where she missed the final match against Ellen Perez due to an injury, dropping the first set. It’s difficult to say for sure if Anna has recovered.
On the whole, Kalinskaya is performing decently on the hard court in the season. She has played a total of 28 matches on this surface, recording 19 wins.
Anna Kalinskaya has lost seven times in her last ten matches against top-20 tennis players.
Barbora Krejčíková has been in search of a game for a long time and has never been able to prove herself. However, in the autumn tournaments, Barbora shot up, winning two consecutive titles in Tallinn and Ostrava. These successes propelled her up to #17 in the WTA rankings.
On the open hard court, since the beginning of the year, Barbora had 12 wins against nine defeats. For Guadalajara, Krejčíková is on a ten-game winning streak and won’t mind following it up in Mexico.
