With a 5.5-game handicap to cover, Amanda Anisimova could find herself in a dangerous match with Ajla Tomljanovic in the second round of the 2026 Miami Open.
Current Form:
Amanda Anisimova opens her campaign at the Miami Open with a -600 moneyline value and a 5.5-game handicap to beat when she dukes it out with an in-form Ajla Tomljanovic.
After a semifinal stint in Dubai, Anisimova crashed in the fourth round of the 2026 Indian Wells Open, bowing to the Canadian rising star Victoria Mboko 4-6, 1-6. Ranked No.6 in the world rankings, Anisimova must rediscover her potent form in Miami to get another shot at a WTA 1000 title.
Tomljanovic has yet to win a title in six tournaments, but it’s still a good year for the Australian, who has compiled a decent 8-5 record. At Indian Wells, Tomljanovic picked up a couple of straight-set wins over Xinyu Wang and Elena Gabriela Ruse before taking Jasmine Paolini to a three-setter, 5-7, 7-5, 1-6. Tomljanovic, who scored a clinical win over Simona Waltert 6-3, 6-4 in the first round, presents a bit of intrigue for her upcoming match with Anisimova because of a 2-2 head-to-head record against the top American.

Our Amanda Anisimova vs Ajla Tomljanovic Prediction
Tomljanovic covers the spread at +5.5 games (-118). Never mind her 2-2 record against Anisimova; their last match happened way back in 2021, when Anisimova was still trying to find her way around the tour. What is important now is Tomljanovic has the form to challenge the American by holding her serves and perhaps forcing one or two break-point conversions.
Can she beat Anisimova? Probably not because Anisimova will not allow herself to suffer another loss from a player outside the top-5. However, Tomljanovic will make her sweat for her points and dig deep in this match. The Aussie could even take her to a three-setter, but Anisimova has just too much big-match experience to drop this opener.
Our betting prediction for Amanda Anisimova vs. Ajla Tomljanovic: Ajla Tomljanovic +5.5 Games
