US Open 2024: Pegula vs Sabalenka match preview

Jessica Pegula and Aryna Sabalenka meet in the US Open final this Saturday afternoon in New York, and do so as undeniably the best two women on Tour over the last month.

Pegula has won 15 of her 16 matches, encompassing a WTA title in Toronto, a runner up finish in Cincinnati, and now a run to the final of the US Open.

She has looked excellent in New York, dropping just the one set so far and even beating world No.1 Iga Swiatek.

Sabalenka has been equally impressive, and comes into the US Open final on a 11-match winning streak.

It was her that beat Pegula in Cincinnati, and she has beaten the likes of Iga Swiatek and Qinwen Zheng in straight sets.

Sabalenka is a safe tennis bet to defeat Pegula at -277.78.

She has far more experience at this stage of majors; this is her fourth Grand Slam final, while Pegula is contesting her first.

Sabalenka also leads the pair’s head-to-head 5-2, including a straight set win just three weeks ago.

But nerves and a track record of Sabalenka closing matches poorly could make this one tighter than tennis betting sites are predicting.

She fluffed a big lead against Pegula last time they played, and did the same in her semi-final this week against Emma Navarro.

Backing Sabalenka to win but over 20.5 games is a smart bet at +160, as is her winning 2-1 for a +250 return at Neds.
