Only the finest players in the world can mount a comeback like Aryna Sabalenka did against the local Madison Keys. Coco Gauff, who defeated Karolina Muchova in the semifinals, will attempt to overcome the new world No. 1 in order to keep the US Open title in 2023 at home.

Our favourite Coco Gauff vs Aryna Sabalenka predictions

We have the greatest tennis prediction for today, as well as betting tips for the WTS US Open final.

Sabalenka to win @ 4/5 (1.80)

Sabalenka won the previous meeting between these two players from start to finish. That was the first h2h in which Gauff did not win a single set, despite having won at least one in each of her prior duels with Sabalenka. Both have improved significantly, but I believe Sabalenka has improved even greater, and I believe she will win the 2023 US Open Final.

First set: Over 10.5 games @ 5/2 (3.50)

There were two tiebreaks in Aryna Sabalenka’s last match, and Gauf’s last set against Muchova ended 7-5. Four of the five direct clashes between Coco and Aryna had at least one set of 12 or 13 games. Based on this information, I believe the opening set will have more than 10.5 games.

The odds in this article were correct at the time of writing, and the odds are subject to change. We recommend checking with your bookmaker before placing a bet.

Gauff vs Sabalenka: Will Aryna take the WTA rankings throne plus the US Open title?

Let’s take a look at the Gauff vs Sabalenka preview and other 2023 US Open predictions.

Coco Gauff 

Gauff reached his second Grand Slam final at the age of 19. She did it at Roland Garros last year. On that occasion, she fought Iga Swiatek, who had recently risen to the top of the WTA rankings, and now she would face the heir apparent.

Coco Gauff dominated the semifinal match against Karolina Muchova, constantly with the score in her advantage.

Aryna Sabalenka

Despite having won five straight matches in straight sets, Aryna was on the verge of being eliminated in the semifinals. Her match versus Madison Keys was extremely difficult. Sabalenka was unable to stop Keys’ ferocious play in the first set, falling 6-0.

Things got worse in the second set when Madison converted the first break point. Aryna’s reply was quick, as she took the match to a tiebreak, which she won. The outcome remained the same in the third set, so the Minks native will compete for her second US Open crown and third Grand Slam.

Gauff vs Sabalenka head to head

Cori defeated Sabalenka in her maiden h2h match at the age of 16. Since then, the American player has a 3-2 lead in the series. However, the Belarussian tennis player won their most recent meeting in the quarterfinals of the Indian Wells tournament, in which Aryna was a finalist.
