Anna Bondar v Taylor Townsend Head to Head

While they have never faced off at the highest level, Townsend had defeated Bondar in the 2022 Cincinnati Open qualifiers. It was a straight-set win.

Bondar on a Four-Match Losing Streak

It’s been a very forgettable start to the season for Bondar. Other than winning the first round at both, the Australian Open and Lyon Open, Bondar hasn’t done anything of note so far.

In fact, coming into this tournament in Miami, Bondar has lost four in a row including an opening round defeat at the hands of Dayana Yastremska in Indian Wells. What makes the situation worse for Bondar is most of these losses have come to players outside the top 40 on WTA Rankings.

Kimberly Birrell, for instance, defeated her in Merida, Danka Kovinic got the better of her in Lyon while Kaia Kanepi and Anhelina Kalinina also defeated Bondar.

Coming up against Townsend who is ranked 123rd in the world, Bondar would hope for some respite.

Townsend with Just One Win This Season

In the five tournaments that Townsend has played this season, the only time she won a match was at the Australian Open. Townsend had beaten Diane Parry in the opening round there.

Other than that, Townsend has featured in three qualifying competitions and lost in the opening round there. And the one other time she did make the main draw as a direct entrant in Austin, Townsend lost to Sloane Stephens in the first round.

That hasn’t really affected Townsend’s ranking too much given she hadn’t played any competitive tennis in the first four months last season. That being said, Townsend has a few points to defend in the second and third quarters of the season and she will need to carve out victories in matches like these.

Especially against a player who has herself struggled for form.

Bondar v Townsend Prediction and Tip

Townsend is a 1/2 favourite here, which won’t be as straightforward as those odds represent. Expecting a three-setter here.
