Our favourite Daria Kasatkina vs Alycia Parks – match predictions
Contents
Kasatkina’s recent surge in form and Parks’ emergence onto the scene despite his inconsistent displays set the stage for an intriguing battle of resilience and aspiration on the grand stage
2-0 to Daria Kasatkina @ 12/25 (1.44)
Parks’ knack for pushing top players to the brink and Kasatkina’s contrasting first-round records on different surfaces set the tone for a matchup laden with possibilities. The American ace’s combined 14 first and second-round exits do not paint a favourable image for her chances. Kasatkina’s most recent victory coming in straight sets against Viktoria Zvonareva pushes us to believe that the 26-year-old Russian should claim a 2-0 victory in their first meeting.
Over 19.5 Games @ 9/10 (1.90)
Parks has struggled to give a decent account of her abilities as evidenced by her second-round ousting from the Cincinnati Masters. However, there is a common trait in her performances, i.e. the 22-year-old’s dogged ability surfacing to drag matches. Kasatkina has the tools to deal with it and we believe she will triumph in straight sets. But this will not stop Parks from stretching the sets to their limits. Based on this, we expect a long-drawn battle that sees at least 19.5 games in this first-round encounter.

Daria Kasatkina preview
Daria Kasatkina’s August run has been nothing short of remarkable, as she secured victories in six matches across three tournaments. Her quarterfinal stint in Montreal, marked by a marathon battle against Elena Rybakina, highlights her grit and determination. She will be confident in her abilities thanks to her form on hard courts since April, with a win-loss record of 24-12, which paints a portrait of her steady climb back to the upper echelons of the rankings. Her consistent performances and reclamation of a top 15 spot underscore her resurgence.
Alycia Parks preview
Parks’ journey, which included a WTA title triumph in Lyon, has been followed by a period of adjustment and challenges. Her presence has been felt across various levels, although first or second-round exits in 14 of her last 16 main draws underscore her transition phase. She earned a breakthrough win at Wimbledon two months ago that serves as a testament to her potential and hunger for success on the biggest stages. Moreover, her battles against top 20 players, often requiring deciding sets or tiebreaks, highlight her competitive spirit.
