Madison Keys vs Anna Kalinskaya prediction

Madison Keys made it through to the third-round with a 6-4 6-3 win over Lucia Bronzetti. Despite the victory in straight sets, Keys wasn’t at her best, being broken twice and taking less than half of her break point opportunities.

Her opponent is Anna Kalinskaya after she defeated Diane Parry 7-6 6-4 at the same stage in a close match. The Russian played the big points really well and can now test herself again against this year’s Australian Open champion.

The head-to-head between the pair is 1-1, with both matches being played on clay. The American was victorious when they met in the first-round of the French Open in 2022 but Kalinskaya got the better of Keys just over three weeks ago in Charleston with a straight sets win.

Both players seem to be easing themselves into the tournament, with Keys surely wanting revenge after her recent defeat to the Russian. This could be a very close one.

Madison Keys vs Anna Kalinskaya tip: Both players to win a set
