Cocciaretto vs Siniakova Prediction 31 August 2026
🔊 Elizaveta Cocciaretto and Katerina Siniaková meet in the first round of the 2026 US Open in what looks set to be a grinding, unpredictable contest.

Head-to-Head
📊 The two players have met three times, with Siniaková leading the head-to-head 2-1 against Cocciaretto. Those meetings were some time ago, though, and carry little weight in assessing the current match-up.

Total Games Prediction
Siniaková has consistently posted low individual game totals across her recent matches - even when her serve is working well, short matches tend to keep her below that mark.
⭐ Editor's Pick

Given that, the bet looks straightforward: our pick is Siniaková - Player Total Games - Under 12.5.
