Playing Styles & Prediction
Both young players play a solid baseline game and can boast potent backhands down the line, and Anisimova has proved that she has the strength and speed to not only smack the ball with depth and power, but to cover the court well with sure footwork.
Raducanu is perhaps a little more emotionally steady than Anisimova, who tends to let her emotions get the better of her. They met in the second round of the Australian Open where Raducanu came through in straight sets, albeit a tight second one – but she will fancy her chances of scalping another seed.
Prediction: Raducanu in three sets.
