Anna Kalinskaya vs Madison Keys prediction

Anna Kalinskaya began her Charleston Open with a 6-1 6-4 win over Cady McNally, coming back from a break down in the second set. She managed to convert six break points out of eight during the match and can now look forward to a third-round match against Madison Keys.

Keys was not at her best but battled her way through to a 6-3 7-6 victory against Caroline Dolehide, winning just a quarter of her break point opportunities. The American is hoping to reclaim the title which she won in 2019 against Caroline Wozniacki.

Keys leads the head-to-head 1-0, with the match also being on clay, as the American recovered from a set down to beat Kalinskaya in the first round of the French Open in 2022.

The world number five is not performing at her highest level, while Kalinskaya seems to be over the injury issues which plagued her at the beginning of the season, but we believe this year’s Australian Open champion will still find a way to sneak through.
