Anisimova in 3 sets. A rather pan-seared, full-flavored prediction, simmered to perfection with some glazing of hope. Enjoy and please, bet responsibly!
Dusting off the virtual annals of tennis history, we skid over to the much-anticipated duel between Amanda Anisimova and Veronika Kudermetova. Here’s a fact as crisp as an autumn dawn: they've rendezvoused across the net twice before. Our dear friend, Anisimova, also known as Miss "I've-got-a-number-next-to-my-name", squeaked by with a victory in their latest encounter in 2025. However, let’s not forget Kudermetova retaliated with a dose of sweet revenge back in 2023.
Diving into recent form, Anisimova seems to be a bit of a roller-coaster ride. Recent losses to Stearns and Kenin might leave her confidence as ruffled as a badly ironed shirt. On the flipside, let's not disregard the fact she's also been drizzling victories like generously poured gravy, including a win against our unseeded heroine, Kudermetova.
Ah, Kudermetova! Her recent laurel against Stefanini may boost her spirit, but losses to Kostyuk and Shnaider might just be chilling enough to make her second guess her game strategy.
It’s kind of like choosing between a runny nose in winter and sunburn in summer, isn’t it? Yet, I dare say, despite the turbulent seas, Anisimova’s coy smile of a 15th seed and her slightly superior recent performance, might just give her the edge, here at the Internazionali d'Italia.
