Amanda Anisimova vs Yulia Putintseva prediction
Amanda Anisimova was not broken on her serve as she wrapped up a comfortable 6-2 6-2 win over Veronika Kudermetova in the previous round.
Yulia Putintseva also won in straight sets against Zhang Shuai, though had to get through a close tie-break after being broken when serving for the first set. Nevertheless, she was able to breeze through the second to wrap up a 7-6 6-1 win. The Kazakhstani was particularly potent when it came to claiming break points, converting eight of the 11 on offer in the match.
These two have played each other on no more than three occasions, including at the 2022 edition of this event, with Anisimova leading 2-1 overall. The American heavily defeated Putintseva 6-1 6-2 three years ago in Charleston, only giving up one break point during the entire match on her way to making the semi-finals.
These two are very closely matched in terms of their ranking and are both coming off the back of straight-set victories, but we think Anisimova will extend her winning record against her opponent.
