Command Analysis
Victoria Azarenka
BelarusCurrent form
During the season, Azarenka's body cannot withstand the stress of the distance and fails. She has to sacrifice individual tournaments and recover. Thus, Victoria did not play at Wimbledon, missed Cincinnati after withdrawing during the 1/8 final match in Toronto. Nevertheless, it is worth noting that she is always ready to play one or two matches at a high level, to win somewhere due to experience, and the tennis player is not one of those who apply for tournaments purely for the prize money.
Professional qualities
Azarenka has all the necessary skills, is good, first of all, at receiving, has a stable backhand, has a good feel for the game, knows how to sharpen and go on the attack at the right moment. At the same time, serve is not a formidable weapon for Victoria.
Current indicators in the tour
Despite periodic health problems, Azarenka has solid results for the season - 28 wins and 13 losses. On open hard courts, not all top-20 representatives can see +18 -10, like Victoria. In the world ranking, she currently ranks 20th.
Interesting facts for betting
In three of her previous five matches, Azarenka has played no more than nine games in the first set.
Yulia Starodubtseva
UkraineCurrent form
Starodubtseva played in not the most prestigious hard tournaments on the way to the US Open, where she did not achieve great success, overcoming one or two rounds. Nevertheless, in New York, Yulia passed the qualification and will play in the main draw for the first time in her career. It should be noted that in two of the three qualifying matches against not the strongest opponents, she lost sets.
Professional qualities
It is difficult to single out any truly strong and well-developed qualities in the tennis player's game. Her serve is far from being the strongest to create any problems for Azarenka. Yulia also does not have powerful blows to knock her experienced opponent out of her usual rhythm.
Current indicators in the tour
Starodubtseva is currently ranked 148th in the world, and the 24-year-old tennis player has never risen above 123rd in her entire career. It should be noted that at the beginning of the year she had a successful Australian Open, where she managed to pass the qualification, and at Wimbledon she also passed the selection and even played in the second round of the main draw.

1.58Tip and bets
We don't think that Azarenka would have entered the US Open with serious problems. Victoria skipped Cincinnati to better prepare for New York and heal her "sores", which she talked about in an interview. Today, with her experience and class, she is capable of achieving a comfortable victory over Starodubtseva, who had difficulties in the qualification even against not the most formidable opponents.
Our prediction is Azarenka's victory with a handicap of (-4.5) games with odds of 1.73
Bet on total
In the last four lost matches, Starodubtseva did not distinguish herself by winning sets. It is unlikely that Yulia will surprise the experienced Victoria with anything today.
The second bet is total under 21 games for 1.72
Bet on the first set
In three of the five previous matches involving Azarenka, more than nine games were not played in the first set. We expect Victoria to confidently establish her advantage in the game right away.
Betting Tip - total games in the first set under 9.5 with odds of 1.61
