Bianca Vanessa Andreescu vs. Veronika Kudermetova Prediction: Andreescu is Aiming For a Winning Streak

On Wednesday, January 4, Bianca Andreescu of Canada will face Veronika Kudermetova of Russia in the second round of the 2023 Adelaide International.

Bianca Vanessa Andreescu

Bianca Andreescu had no business winning her first-round match against Garbine Muguruza, yet she did it against all odds.

The Canadian dropped the opening set 0-6 and trailed in the second as well.

Muguruza fell after winning the tiebreak, allowing Andreescu to clinch the match easily. It was a tremendous comeback, but it also demonstrated how physically fit Andreescu is. With another competitive meeting on the horizon, it might become critical.

She's had a good start to the year, despite her tennis isn't at its best. She's still pretty erratic overall, which is a worry, but if she can string together a few victories, she'll be much more secure in her tennis going ahead.

Veronika Kudermetova

Amanda Anisimova is a highly good player in Australia, thus any player that comfortably beats her should be acknowledged. Kudermetova has improved as a player in the last year, and she currently plays at a level that is closer to the top 10 than it is below it.

She demonstrated it in her 6-3 6-0 annihilation of Anisimova, and she'll bring that confidence into this match as well.

Her specialty is attacking tennis, which is essential while facing Andreescu. If she wants to win, she'll have to trade blows with the Canadian.

I feel she is capable of doing it because she is more consistent than Andreescu. Her game does not swing as much as Andreescu's, but her peak is not as good. She also has a strong serve, which will be essential in this match.

Expert Betting Tips

As a result, this is an extremely exciting battle in which either player might win. I believe Kudermetova has a better chance because I was impressed with her performance in her opener.
