Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction One – Handicap (+0.5) for Sabalenka – 1.72.
Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction Two – Total Games Over 21.5 – 1.77.
The Belarusian has a tough task in Madrid to defend last year’s title. Sabalenka is unlucky with her opponent at the start. After all, Anisimova had been stronger three times before in their head-to-head encounters.
After that tournament, the world number four played well in Stuttgart and got a full game practice. We think today Sabalenka will break the losing streak and beat Amanda.
In their recent face-off in Charleston, the opponents exchanged winning sets. Sabalenka has played at least 22 games in five of her last six matches.

Amanda Anisimova:
Anisimova played her first tournament on the clay in early April. Amanda did well in Charleston, reaching the semi-finals. One step from the decisive match Amanda lost to Ons Jabeur, despite easily taking the first set.
The highlight for Anisimova at that tournament was her victory over Arina Sabalenka (3-6, 6-4, 6-3) whom she stopped in the third round.
Last year, Anisimova failed to make the first round in Madrid, losing to Maria Sakkari.
Aryna Sabalenka:
Sabalenka, meanwhile, had a good tournament in Stuttgart after losing to Anisimova in Charleston. Arina reached the final, where she lost to Iga Swiatek. However, this defeat can hardly be called a failure, because Swiatek is simply in incredible form.
The important thing here is that Sabalenka beat Bianca Andreescu (6-1, 3-6, 6-2), Anett Kontaveit (6-4, 3-6, 6-1) and Paula Badosa (7-6, 6-4) before meeting Iga.
Sabalenka is the reigning champion of the Madrid tournament.
