Anna Karolína Schmiedlova vs Anastasia Zakharova Prediction: We Chose the Favorite

Prediction for the WTA Hua Hin match, which will take place on January 31st. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Anna Karolína Schmiedlova

Schmiedlova tumbled over herself, reaching the second round of AO-2023. In qualification, she beat Khromacheva, Ponchet, and American Mandlik. Moreover, Schmiedlova went through the first round of the main draw of the AO, knocking out Trevisan, No. 21. But Trevisan's compatriot, Giorgi, stood up for her country and knocked Schmiedlova out of the tournament, defeating her in two sets. In any case, it was an excellent success for Anna.

Anastasia Zakharova

Zakharova came to Thailand with a three-match losing streak. At the tournament in the UAE, Anastasia lost to Poland's Frech. In Canberra, she was weaker than the representative of Uzbekistan Abduraimova, and in Melbourne, in the AO qualification, Zakharova fell to Stefanini. Note that Zakharova is No. 177.

Expert Betting Tips

Zakharova failed at the start of the season, while Schmiedlova performed well in Melbourne. The second round of the AO could be a better achievement, but we are not dealing with the top tennis players, but with the second hundred of the WTA ranking. That's why it's a step forward for Schmiedlova to qualify, knocking out three opponents and beating the top 25 player in the main draw. We expect Anna Karolina to be positive and active in the upcoming game, and we doubt Zakharova has a real chance of winning.
