Match Results: Anastasia Tikhonova
Anastasia Gasanova Player Overview
Anastasia Gasanova has a slightly better recent record - 6 wins from her last 10 matches. However, two consecutive defeats going into this tournament point to inconsistent results. Over recent matches her games-won percentage is higher at 57%, and she also leads on sets won (59%). The main concern, though, is a very low hold percentage: just 9% of service games won in recent matches, which significantly limits her potential to accumulate games even against a moderately performing opponent. This factor becomes particularly relevant when analysing her individual total games line.
Match Results: Anastasia Gasanova
Key factors
- Anastasia Gasanova has not won more than 12.5 games in eight consecutive matches.
- Anastasia Gasanova has won 57% of games over her last 10 matches, but her overall game totals have been consistently low.
- In head-to-head meetings, Anastasia Tikhonova leads on wins.
- The sets won and streaks statistics point to a two-set match.
Expected scenario
The match could unfold in a way that allows one of the players to take control early and close it out in straight sets. That scenario noticeably reduces the chances of Anastasiya Gasanova reaching 12.5 games - her results show a consistent ceiling on that figure even when her overall game-winning percentage is relatively high.
Total Games Prediction
Gasanova has now failed to reach 12.5 games in eight consecutive matches, regardless of opponent or tournament stage - her playing style and serve problems make this outcome likely again.
⭐ Editor's Pick
Anastasia Gasanova's weak hold rate combines with her opponent's confident control in their head-to-head meetings. Even with a reasonable games-won percentage against other players, the actual total has finished below the line in eight matches in a row. On that basis, another under looks likely - the pick is Anastasia Gasanova - Player Total Games - Under 12.5.
