Karolina Pliskova began her US Open 2021 campaign on a really high note as she crushed America’s Caty McNally in straight sets. She has been one of the consistent players on the WTA Tour this year and will definitely prove to be a threat for Anisimova.

World No.75 Amanda Anisimova also didn’t face any sort of difficulty in her first round match against Zarina Diyas. She steamrolled over her opponent and defeated her in straight sets quite easily.

Anisimova will have to avoid hitting too many unforced errors to give herself a chance against Pliskova. The Czech player is serving really great and the American will have to be rock solid in her defence in order to give a fight to the World No.4 player.

As of now, it is Pliskova who leads the battle 3-0 against Anisimova. All their previous battles have taken place on hard courts and interestingly, the Czech player is yet to drop a set against the American.

Their last battle happened recently at the National Bank Open 2021 where Pliskova thrashed Anisimova in straight sets. Thus, the American will try to seek revenge of her last defeat in New York.

Pliskova will be beginning as the favorite before the match. Even though she hasn’t won a Grand Slam title, she has played some really attacking tennis this year and will give her best at the US Open 2021.

Even though Anisimova showed some great character in the first round f the ongoing Grand Slam, it will be difficult for her to stand a chance against an in-form Pliskova. She will need to target her backhand consistently and avoid making too many unforced errors- a trait that is visible in her gamely lately.

Final Prediction: Karolina Pliskova to win in straight sets
