LiontipsTatyana Maria vs. Cori Gauff. US Open match prediction and bets
Command Analysis
Current form
In the first round, Tatyana Maria was lucky with her opponent. Sierra has neither experience nor decent skills in playing on fast surfaces. With her slices and constant trips to the net, the German managed to stump the representative of Argentina (6-2, 6-3). During the match, Tatyana gave up her serve only once, made six aces and had a noticeable advantage on the return.
Professional qualities
Due to her age (the tennis player is 37 years old), Tatyana Maria is not known for her high speed. Her playing style is unusual – constant slices, sliced shots, frequent trips to the net.
Current indicators in the tour
At the moment, Maria is on the threshold of the top 100 (99th place). Her season is far from being the most successful - 24 wins and 28 losses. On open hard, Tatyana won 10 matches and lost 11 times.
Interesting facts for betting
- Maria suffered four of her last five defeats in the round with a dry score of 0-2
Current form
Gauff began her title defense with a convincing victory over Gracheva (6-2, 6-0). Cori is clearly serious about the tournament, especially after her unsuccessful previous competitions in Toronto and Cincinnati, where she managed to win only one match. In the game with Varvara, the American served 10 aces and never gave up her serve. Of the negative moments, we note six double faults.
Professional qualities
Cory moves very quickly around the court, easily blocking possible attack directions of her opponents. At any moment, she is capable of hitting a winner with her powerful forehand – she made 16 winners with Gracheva.
Current indicators in the tour
After some less than successful recent tournaments, Gauff has fallen to third place in the world rankings, behind Sabalenka. On open hard courts, Cory has 20 wins in 27 matches since the beginning of the year, with a title in Auckland.
Interesting facts for betting
- Gauff has won her last eight victories on the tour with a precise score of 2-0 in sets.
- In the American's three previous matches, no more than eight games were played in the second set.

2.21Tip and bets
It is unlikely that Maria will surprise Gauff with her slices and frequent trips to the net today. The American will have an advantage due to her speed and will regularly break through the German's defense. Moreover, she already has experience playing against Tatyana - a year ago in Oakland, Cory beat her with a score of 6-4, 6-1. We expect something similar today.
Our prediction is Gauff's victory with a handicap of (-7) games with odds of 1.75
Bet on total
In the opening match against Gracheva, the current US Open champion lost only two games and never gave up her serve. We expect a less convincing victory for Cory this time as well.
The second bet is total under 17.5 games for 1.69
Bet on the second set
In the last three matches involving Gauff, there were no more than eight games in the second set. It is highly likely that today in this game segment she will confidently "press" Maria.
Betting Tip - total games in the second set under 8.5 with odds of 1.75
