Iga Swiatek vs Jessica Pegula US Open Prediction: American Pride On Display

• Prediction: Jessica Pegula +4.5 Games Handicap
• Best Odds: +100
• Bookmaker: Pinnacle
• Stakes: 3/10

Odds as of 7:00 am UK Time on September 4, 2024. Odds may now differ.

Iga Swiatek has four French Open wins and a 2022 US Open trophy on the mantle and after a disappointing fourth-round exit a year ago in New York the Olympic Bronze Medallist wants to finish the season with one more Major victory.

Wednesday will mark the ninth appearance for Swiatek in a Major quarterfinal and with one move victory the World’s #1 can bank win #60 for the campaign. 

If you were watching the Pegula match against Diana Shnaider, Chrissie Evert said that Jess is in the perfect shape to give Iga a run for her money and I couldn’t agree more with the former American champion. 

Pegula is playing with confidence and is not feeling any affects from the injury that kept the World’s #6 off the court in May. Since retunring to North America after a disappointing Olympic showing, Pegula is 13 – 1 with a Toronto trophy win and was a finalist in Cincinnati leading to the final Major of 2024.

Pinnacle is dishing out a +305 on the American’s chances to reach the US Open semifinal and if anyone is going to upset Swiatek it will be Jess Pegula! These two have met 9 times so there is no mystery as to what to expect from each other.

Pegula will have the New York crowd at Arthur Ashe in support so give me those +4.5 games to cover the handicap at +100.

IGA SWIATEK RECENT FORM

Iga Swiatek wasn’t thrilled about a Bronze Medal in Paris and she has only played one tournament in Cincinnati as part of the North American swing. After a semifinal fail against Aryna Sabalenka, that was the only tune-up for Swiatek to prepare for the final Major of 2024.

Iga is 59 – 7 this season and 29 – 4 on hardcourts and she will most likey have 60+ wins for the third straight campaign. 

JESSICA PEGULA RECENT FORM

Jess hasn’t dropped a set in New York from four US Open wins and the American will have a fourth straight season with winning records on all three surfaces.

Pegula is 34 – 11 with a 22 – 6 record on hardcourts and with a win today will reach her first Major semifinal. Jess has six quarterfinal appearances in Major Tournaments and has yet to break through to the semis.

SWIATEK VS PEGULA HTH –  STAT OF THE MATCH

Iga and Jess have played each other 9 times on the WTA Tour and the Polish #1 holds a 6 – 3 edge in the series.

Pegula won the first meeting played between them in Washington during the 2019 campaign and they have split wins in the last four meetings.

This is the second clash in a Major Tournament and Iga has taken straight-set wins from each affair (French and US Open 2022)
