Putintseva vs. Noskova Prediction at the US Open – Tuesday, August 27
Head-to-Head: Putintseva 3-1 Noskova
Yulia Putintseva and Linda Noskova will face off in the first round of the US Open on Tuesday, August 27. Putintseva is the higher-ranked player, but Noskova has been the more impressive performer in recent months.
Noskova upset Serena Williams at Wimbledon
Noskova, a 17-year-old qualifier, stunned Serena Williams in the first round of Wimbledon. She won the match 6-2, 6-4 to earn the biggest win of her career. It was the first time that Williams had lost in the first round of a Grand Slam tournament since 2014.
Putintseva has struggled with injuries
Putintseva, a 27-year-old from Kazakhstan, has been hampered by injuries in recent months. She missed the French Open due to a foot injury and withdrew from Wimbledon due to a wrist injury. She returned to action at the Citi Open in Washington, D.C., but lost in the second round.
Prediction
This is a tough match to call. Putintseva is the higher-ranked player, but Noskova has been the more impressive performer in recent months. I'm going to give a slight edge to Noskova in this one. She's playing with a lot of confidence right now and she's not afraid to take risks. I think she'll be able to pull off the upset and beat Putintseva in three sets.
Betting Odds
- Putintseva: -115
- Noskova: +105
