Katie Boulter vs Diane Parry – match predictions

As both players set their sights on a second round spot, these are our predictions and tips for this match

Katie Boulter to win @ 1/2 (1.50)

It’s worth mentioning that Katie Boulter and Diane Parry have never made it past the first round of this competition in their respective careers. Boulter exited in the first round of the US Open two years ago, while her French opponent crashed out in the first round on two occasions.

That said, these players met on this surface a few months ago, and it was Katie Boulter who emerged victorious in straight sets, dropping just six games in the process. Considering Diane Parry has lost three of her last four matches, we are leaning towards Katie Boulter for the victory.

Under 21.5 total games @ 4/5 (1.80)

We’ve already established that Katie Boulter surrendered just six games the only other time these players met; that match went comfortably under 20 games. Bearing that in mind, these players have both been involved in a lot of two-setters lately. While seven of Katie Boulter’s last eight matches ended in minimum sets, Diane Parry is coming off three consecutive two-setters. That said, we are fairly confident that this will be another straight sets victory for Katie Boulter; and that’s why we’re backing up that prediction by taking the under 21.5 games option.

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.

Who will advance to the second round of the US Open for the first time?

Now that we’ve sorted out our predictions for this match, let’s see how these players fared in the weeks leading up to this competition.

Katie Boulter

Katie Boulter crashed out in the qualifying rounds of the Cincinnati Open a couple of weeks ago; she has not been very consistent lately, having won four and lost four of her last eight matches. The Brit will fancy her chances of advancing to the second round at the expense of Diane Parry.

Diane Parry

On the other hand, Diane Parry last played at the Challenger event in Chicago, where she crashed out in the first round. She has lost back-to-back matches, with three losses in her last four matches. The 20 year old will hope to avenge her Indian Wells Open loss as she faces Katie Boulter today.
