Amanda Anisimova will shoot for another Grand Slam quarterfinal appearance on Sunday against Xinyu Wang of China at the 2026 Australian Open.
Recommended Pick: Xinyu Wang +5.5 Games
Potential Payout: $212 for every $112 Bet (-112 @FanDuel).
Current Form:
Anisimova is on the verge of another deep Grand Slam run after racking up three straight-set wins to reach the round of 16 of the 2026 Australian Open. The world’s No.4 blasted Simona Waltert 6-3, 6-2, Katerina Siniakova 6-1, 6-4, and Peyton Stearns 6-1, 6-4 to stay in the mix for the AO title. Anisimova is winning 75 percent of his first serves and doesn’t concede service breaks a lot in the tournament, having saved 18 of 22 break-points.
Wang is through to her first round of 16 at the Australian Open after stunning Linda Noskova 7-5, 6-4. The Chinese broke Noskova four times and collected 30 points on her first serves to get the job done. Wang, who also eliminated former major champion Jelena Ostapenko in straight sets, is converting 55.9 percent of breakpoints and averaging 7 aces per match.

Our Xinyu Wang vs Amanda Anisimova Prediction
Fearless Forecast: Amanda Anisimova fends off feisty Xinyu Wang 7-6, 6-4
Reason: Anisimova is too good to lose to Wang in this matchup, but the 5.5-game handicap is just too wide given how well the Chinese has played in this tournament. Anisimova might be a top-4 or even top-3 caliber player, but I don’t see her blowing out Wang, who has taken down a couple of borderline elite players such as Noskova and Ostapenko. Moreover, Wang has 15 career matches against top-10 players, winning four of those. Top-level competition isn’t going to overwhelm Wang, who holds an 8-2 record this season.
Our betting prediction for Amanda Anisimova vs. Xinyu Wang: Xinyu Wang +5.5 Games.
