Prediction & Betting Pick
While Kostyuk holds the head-to-head advantage (2-0), Anisimova has looked sharp in Doha, defeating a former champion and a current top-10 player. She is also playing some of her best tennis in recent years after overcoming setbacks in previous seasons.
Kostyuk is a strong contender, and oddsmakers are offering her at nearly even money. However, Anisimova’s powerful and composed performance this week makes her a slight favorite. Given her form and confidence, she has the edge in this matchup.
