On Friday, at the Washington DC Open, Naomi Osaka will continue her preparation ahead of the soon-to-begin US Open by taking on Elisabetta Cocciaretto in the quarter finals. Can the Grand Slam winner continue to step on the gas and make the semis? Or will we see Cocciaretto, who has been playing very well against higher-ranked opponents, cause a sizable upset?
Let's be real, on paper, this is absolutely Naomi Osaka's match to lose, and if the multiple Grand Slam winner turns up in anywhere near her best form, then she'll come out on top, it really is that simple. However, her Italian opponent is certainly playing well enough to make this a test, so much so that it's worth betting on Elisabetta Cocciaretto, who likely won't be quite good enough to win, to avoid losing by any more than a five-game margin. Based on her recent efforts, she looks a little generously priced to do so.

Our Elisabetta Cocciaretto vs Naomi Osaka Prediction
Right now, Elisabette Cocciaretto is delivering some of the best hard-court tennis of her career, so much so that she's absolutely worth betting on to get competitive. As touched on above, is Naomi Osaka turns it on, even an in-form Cocciaretto will find it hard to win, but the Italian is definitely playing well enough to make the former world number one work very hard.
Based on what we've seen from Cocciaretto against both Emma Navarro and Clara Tauson at the tournament already, she looks a little generously priced to go down by nothing greater than a five-game margin.
Our Elisabetta Cocciaretto vs Naomi Osaka Pick: Elisabetta Cocciaretto +5.5 Game Handicap.
