3 Key match details

Haddad Maia has been a little up and down this season, but the Brazilian seems to have found her stride in New York. She blitzed through her second round with the loss of just three games. However, Kalinskaya hasn’t lost a set yet at the 2024 US Open, which shows that both players are looking good ahead of this round.

As for the best markets to cover with solid value, I’m shooting for the following:

Haddad Maia to win @ 5/4 (2.20)

As the underdog, I think there is real value in covering Haddad Maia for the win. She looked fantastic in her last round against Sorribes Tormo, and her forehand was on point. This is her main weapon, and I feel she can use her ‘lefty’ advantage to grab the win over Kalinskaya.

Three total sets @ 29/20 (2.45)

While my first prediction depends on the outcome of the match, this one doesn’t. Instead, it solely relies on the two players splitting sets tonight, which I think is a very real possibility. This is especially true given how close they are in rankings and on court ability.

Wondering what other information you need to know before covering those markets? Let me show you:

Beatriz Haddad Maia preview

As the 22nd seed, Haddad Maia was originally expected to reach this round at the US Open. That said, this is the round at which she is expected to exit the tournament, as she faces the 15th seed in the form of Kalinskaya. This is actually her best performance at the US Open, too, although she will be eager to go further with a win over Kalinskaya.

Anna Kalinskaya preview

Much like Haddad Maia, this is the furthest that Kalinskaya has ever gone in the US Open. Therefore, while she’s expected to go through (on paper), she’d be entering unfamiliar territory. As it happens, Kalinskaya always seems to struggle in Grand Slam events, as she has made just one quarter-final in her career despite being a top 20 player.

Haddad Maia vs Kalinskaya head to head

Haddad Maia and Kalinskaya have never faced off in a professional tournament. This means the H2H is 0-0, of course, and it also gives this match a sense of unpredictability.
