Aryna Sabalenka vs Elena Rybakina: Elena Rybakina to win the match (+130)
Odds available at Pinnacle at time of publishing
Aryna Sabalenka faces Elena Rybakina at US Open on Saturday 12 September 2026. They are playing on a hard court. This is a match winner bet, so it lands if Elena Rybakina wins the match. It was priced at +130 when we wrote this, so a $10 bet returns $23 if it lands. Our model leans this way without loving it. Rybakina's recent form is strong, with a win rate of 80% over her last 10 matches, indicating consistency. In contrast, Sabalenka's serve metrics are concerning; she has not performed well on her serve recently, with average first serve percentage and points won being zero, highlighting a potential vulnerability. Rybakina’s opponents have shown a first serve win percentage of 59.8% and a second serve success of 53.3%, suggesting she can capitalize on Sabalenka's serve struggles. Additionally, Rybakina's ability to save break points (61.5%) further enhances her defensive capabilities. Given the hard court surface and Sabalenka’s serve issues, Rybakina is primed to exploit these weaknesses, making her the preferred pick.

Odds available at fanatics at time of publishing
Aryna Sabalenka and Elena Rybakina are both powerful players, and their matches often feature a lot of energy. However, their first sets can be tight and competitive, which might lead to fewer games played. Betting on under 9.5 total games in the first set seems like a good move, given how closely matched they are. Our numbers suggest this matchup is nearly a toss-up, and we expect around 10 games in total. The risk here is that both players could find their rhythm early and push the game to a longer set. Still, under 9.5 games feels like a solid choice with these two going head-to-head.

Elena Rybakina has been showing strong form lately, making her a solid choice for winning Set 1 against Aryna Sabalenka. Rybakina's powerful serve and quick play can really put pressure on her opponents right from the start. With the matchup being so close, it feels like a good moment to back her at these odds. The biggest risk is that Sabalenka is also a fierce competitor who can take control of the game quickly. However, Rybakina's recent performances suggest she can come out strong and snag that first set. Plus, getting a chance to bet on her at these odds makes it even more appealing.

Elena Rybakina has been playing really well lately, showing she can compete with the best. In her match against Aryna Sabalenka, I like her chances to win the second set. The odds are decent, and it feels like a fair shot since both players are so evenly matched. The big worry here is that Sabalenka is also a strong contender and could easily bounce back. Still, I think Rybakina has the tools to take that second set, especially if she keeps her focus. It's a close matchup, but I'm leaning toward Rybakina for this one.
