Kalinskaya vs Li Prediction 1 February 2025

Is there an undeniable favorite in the semifinal match of the Singapore competition between Anna Kalinskaya and Ann Li? The main question around which our prediction is based. Sportbooks decided not to give a significant preference to anyone in the match. And we, in turn, also do not dare to highlight anyone yet.

Anna Kalinskaya

For Kalinskaya, this week is of colossal psychological importance, as she has never won major titles before. Last year, Anna was twice close to a major triumph (top-2 Berlin and Dubai). However, she was then outperformed by Jessica Pegula and Jasmine Paolini. Currently, the Russian representative is far from peak conditions, due to regular injuries and illnesses. Today, the tennis player spent two hours dealing with Mananchaya Sawangkae, not allowing her to earn a single break point in the decisive set.

Ann Li

Li won all three matches on these courts in straight sets, spending four hours and five minutes to get through the draw. Before the vacation, Ann also almost won a significant trophy (top-2 Merida). But she failed to break the resistance of Zeynep Sonmez. This time, however, the American feels much more confident. Although she still greatly lacks stability. Her serve is not particularly impressive (six breaks in the championship), which prevents her from having easier walks.

Editorial Prediction

We deeply believe that this meeting should not last very long. The opponents have expended a huge amount of resources on their way to the coveted trophy, and we think that one of them simply will not have enough physical strength for an exhausting three-set battle. Total under - a sensible choice for the match.
