Emma Raducanu vs. Amanda Anisimova Head-to-Head
This third-round Indian Wells contest will mark the fourth meeting of their careers, with the Brit leading the head-to-head 2-1.
Raducanu came out on top in their first meeting in the second round of the 2025 Australian Open, winning 6-3, 7-5. She then defeated the American again during the Sunshine Swing, winning their Miami Open Round of 16 contest 6-1, 6-3.
Their third meeting came on the back of Anisimova’s breakthrough summer on the WTA Tour. And the in-form American comfortably dispatched Raducanu when they met in the third round of the Canadian Open, winning in straight sets, 6-2, 6-1.
Both players are still finding their rhythm in 2026, with Raducanu entering this match with a 7-6 win-loss record and Anisimova with an 8-4 record. The latter did make the quarterfinals at the Australian Open and the semifinals in Dubai.
