Coco Gauff faces Maria Sakkari looking to bounce back from a shock loss in the group stages. This is the women’s singles match in the United Cup quarter-final tie between the USA and Greece. Time for our match prediction.
The USA won this outdoor hard court tournament last year and also in 2023. Gauff was part of the American squad last year and got off to a good start in 2026 as she lost only two games against Solana Sierra.
It didn’t go so well against Jessica Bouzas Maneiro losing in three sets and only winning one game in the two sets she lost.
It’s been a busy week for Gauff as the American has also played and won two mixed doubles matches to help the USA win Group A.
This is their 11th meeting and It’s 5-5 between them but Gauff has won four of the last five.
Maria Sakkari has slipped down the rankings but has made a strong start to the new year. The group stages saw her get a straight sets win over Naomi Osaka and a three-set victory over Emma Raducanu.
Sakkari is now 50th in the live rankings but that’s 47 places below her opponent.
We tip more than 19.5 games to be played.
