After disappointingly falling at the final hurdle at WTA event in Athens last month, Maria Sakkari has been a little unlucky to run into a couple of the very best on this North American hard-court swing. The former world number three now enters the US Open, having previously reached the semis of this fine competition. Up against Sakkari is Robin Montgomery, who should be feeling upbeat after coming through qualifying, though she'll need more than confidence to get this done.
At odds of -133, Maria Sakkari looks too leniently priced for us to ignore. The Greek player has been presented with a pleasing first-round opportunity, and the early market isn't reflecting that enough, meaning that we can scoop some value for money. Don't be fooled by the qualifying form of Robin Montgomery, who will need to raise her game significantly to cause an upset here.

Our Maria Sakkari vs Robin Montgomery Prediction
As mentioned above, this is a more sizable opportunity for Maria Sakkari, who has previously played very well at Flushing Meadows, than the early odds would have us believe. Therefore, the Greek player is worth betting to come out on top, as she typically has done when taking on lower-ranked players since the end of the grass-court season, winning six out of six against lower-ranked players on her return to the hard-court scene.
