Amanda Anisimova moved on to the semifinals after gutting out a 2-6, 7-5, 7-6 comeback win over the defending champion Mirra Andreeva. Anisimova, who is winning 60 percent of breakpoints in Dubai, broke serves eight times off the back 58 return points. The two-time Grand Slam finalist is 7-3 on the 2026 WTA season.
Pegula continued to be the gold standard of consistency on the WTA Tour after she secured her 7th straight semifinal appearance following a 6-3, 2-6, 6-4 win over Clara Tauson of Denmark at the Dubai Tennis Championship. The American banked on her experience to thwart a comeback bid from Tauson, who broke Pegula twice in the second set to force a decider. Pegula unleashed a furious attack in the third set, winning 77 percent of her first serves and converting a clutch breakpoint that gave her all the edge she needed to wrap up the match.

Our Jessica Pegula vs Amanda Anisimova Prediction
Fearless Forecast: Jessica Pegula sustains dominance over Amanda Anisimova 6-4, 3-6, 7-5
Despite Pegula’s 5-0 record over Anisimova in their head-to-head encounter, this is a difficult match to predict. Both Pegula and Anisimova were clutch in their quarterfinal matches, overcoming a serious test by top-caliber opponents to secure their spots in the semifinals.
Buoyed by her top-10 win over defending champion Mirra Andreeva, Anisimova wields the form and weapons to take down elite peers on the tour. However, Pegula appears to be the sensible pick not only because of her lopsided record over Anisimova but also her enduring consistency on the tour over her last seven tournaments.
Our betting prediction for Amanda Anisimova vs. Jessica Pegula: Jessica Pegula will win.All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
