Coco Gauff vs Marta Kostyuk Prediction

USA’s Coco Gauff takes to the court for the first time since her Australian Open quarter-final exit and does so with a point to prove. Marta Kostyuk was eliminated in the third round in Melbourne by Paula Badosa, the same opponent who went on to knock out Gauff. But when these two players have clashed previously, Gauff has usually proven successful.

Last time Gauff and Kostyuk met was last year in Wuhan when Gauff dominated the Ukrainian, dropping just five games in a straight sets victory. The expectation is that Gauff will impose her powerful style of play on Kostyuk, who will find it really hard to gain any traction on the court as the former US Open champion dictates the tempo here. Therefore, back Gauff to win in straight sets.
