Conqueror of the top players Leyla Fernandez is in her maiden final
Leyla Fernandez continued her amazing run at the US Open and added second seed Aryna Sabalenka to her casualties list. Notably, the world number 73 had one of the toughest paths to the final sweeping aside four top ten seeded players. However, the young Canadian suffered in those matches needing three sets in each of them to eventually prevail.
During this season, Fernadez’s best result in a Grand Slam was reaching the second round at the French Open. But somehow the 19-year-old found reached a level that even the best players in the world couldn’t handle. In her last match, the Canadian showed some nervous moments with a number of unforced errors. But in the end, her courage got her through.

Can Emma Raducanu maintain her dominance in the final?
The other side of the court in this year’s US Open women’s final finds another teenager Emma Raducanu. Another straight sets victory saw the 18-year-old register her ninth win in the US Open this year. Incredibly she is the first qualifier in history to reach the final of this inaugural Grand Slam tournament.
To point out, Raducanu’s dominance in her matches is way beyond her age. In addition, the world number 150 has the ability to withstand any pressure during the match. Also she dominates in a way that, her opponents don’t have the chance to get back into the game. And her semi-final match against Maria Sakkari was a good proof of that.

Leylah Fernandez vs Emma Raducanu Prediction
Nobody expected or predicted the final that will take place in the women’s singles at the US Open. Leylah Fernandez didn’t have a good season except winning a title in Monterrey.
Meanwhile, Emma Raducanu showed some glimpses of her abilities at Wimbledon before retiring due to injury. Nonetheless, it is extremely remarkable what these two achieved at the year’s final Grand Slam.
In all cases, we expect an epic final. Since both players like to be in control of the rallies we expect the exchanges to be short. This in turn will lead to both players taking risks to finish the points quickly.
Emma Raducanu is the slight favorite to win with the Bookies. Notable bet365 is offering odds of 1.66 for the Brit’s win and 2.30 for Fernandez. We will back the total games and think that odds of 1.80 for over 20.5 games is very fair.
