As we turn the bend into week two of the 2024 French Open, we have an interesting match coming up in the women’s singles. This is the 4th round encounter between Gauff and Cocciaretto, and I’ve lined up my tennis predictions today for this game below.

Our favourite Coco Gauff vs Elisabetta Cocciaretto predictions

Coco Gauff, as the 3rd seed for the French Open this year, has yet to lose a set. Cocciaretto, on the other hand, has lost a set, but she’s also claimed two big wins that were somewhat unexpected, too. However, there is a big difference between these two both in ranking and in terms of their ability on clay; hence I’ve landed on the following predictions:

Gauff to win 2-0 @ 2/5 (1.40)

Although we can take nothing away from Cocciaretto for reaching the 4th round of the French Open, I feel this is the end of the line for the feisty Italian. Gauff is just a much more experienced player at this level, and she’s looked in fine form in her last few matches. For that reason, I’m picking Gauff to win in straight sets.

Under 20.5 games @ 8/13 (1.62)

Not only do I think that Gauff will get the job done in straight sets, but I think the final result will be pretty clinical too. After all, this is the stage of major events in which the best players turn it up a notch. And I expect Gauff to do exactly that when she faces Cocciaretto in this match.

Coco Gauff vs Elisabetta Cocciaretto odds

Gauff has an 88.90% chance of winning this match, while the probability for Cocciaretto is significantly lower at 16.70% – as per the most recent odds.

3rd set setting her sights on Roland Garros quarter-final

With predictions taken care of, let’s look at each of these two from a broader perspective.

Coco Gauff preview

Gauff is one of the world’s best on clay right now, in my opinion. She’s a real threat to the main favourites such as Swiatek and Sabalenka too, as confirmed by the fact that she is ranked 3 in the world right now. Additionally, she’s made the final of Roland Garros in the past, so she’s expected to beat the Italian here.

Elisabetta Cocciaretto preview

Cocciaretto has come from nowhere really to make her mark on the tournament and reach the fourth round. This is the furthest she has even gone in a Grand Slam tournament, and she should be pleased with her achievements. However, while she has beaten top players such as Haddad Maia to get here, Coco Gauff is on another level.

Gauff vs Cocciaretto head to head

Gauff and Cocciaretto have played each other twice in the recent past. It’s Coco Gauff who has won both of these encounters in straight sets, too, making the head-to-head 2-0 in the American’s favour.
