Li vs Vekic Prediction 2 September 2026
🔊 Ann Li and Donna Vekić meet in the second round of the US Open. The match is on hard court, which may suit both players given their recent results. The statistics and current form of both players make for an interesting dynamic.
Head-to-Head
📊 Ann Li won their only previous meeting. However, that result does not appear particularly relevant to this match, given how much time has passed and how both players' form has changed since then.
Ann Li Player Overview
Ann Lee arrives at this match having won six of her last ten, a patchy run but not without bright spots. In the first round of the US Open she beat Antonia Ruzic, though before that she lost to Diane Parry in the Monterrey semi-final. She holds serve in 67% of her service games, which is around average for a top-30 player. Her first-serve percentage stands at 58%, and she wins 52% of points on serve. Worth noting: Ann Lee has been bagelled in four of her last ten matches, yet she has also taken sets off higher-ranked opponents. Over those ten matches she has won 53% of games overall and averaged 3.2 aces per match.
Match Results: Ann Li
Donna Vekic Player Overview
Donna Vekic is in neutral form: five wins from her last ten matches, with noticeable swings in results across different stretches of the season. Her recent win over Talia Gibson at the start of the US Open shows she can start strongly even after a run of defeats in August. Her main strengths are a high games-won percentage of 52% and a solid hold rate of 70%. The average number of games in her matches is 25.2, pointing to frequent long sets or tight finishes. She hits notably more aces than her opponent - 4.6 per match - and her first-serve percentage stands at 63%. Recent trends suggest that even in defeats she consistently clears the Player Total Games - Over 10.5 line.

Total Games Prediction
The trend shows that Donna Vekić almost always plays more than eleven games regardless of the match result - both in wins and in losses.
⭐ Editor's Pick
Donna Vekić has been consistent in the number of games she wins on her own racket - she regularly clears this line even against strong opponents, maintaining a high rate of points won on serve and return regardless of the match result. A competitive second-round scenario only increases the likelihood of the total being reached, given the potential for long sets or a closely fought second. The pick is Donna Vekić - Player Total Games Over 10.5.
