On Saturday afternoon, the action at the WTA event in Montreal, known for sponsorship reasons as the the National Bank Open presented by Rogers, there are some eye-catching matches due to take place, with big-name players such as Coco Gauff and Elena Rybakina in action. From a betting point of view, as far as I'm concerned, the most interesting match sees McCartney Kessler and Marta Kostyuk go head-to-head in what will be a battle between two players separated by very little in the WTA Rankings. The Ukrainian player is currently ranked above her American opponent, but she's not had it easy in Montreal so far, needing three sets in both the first and second round, which may mean that she has less left in the tank than Kessler, who looked in explosive form last time out, beating world number five Mirra Andreeva in straight sets. Can she use that excellent win as a platform from which to build? We'll soon find out.Limited Offer. Currently at FanDuel

Our McCartney Kessler vs Marta Kostyuk Prediction
Marta Kostyuk has picked up two pleasing wins at this tournament now, beating both Vondrousova and Kasatkina, neither of whom are easy to get the better of. However, the Ukrainian needed three sets on both of those occasions, which will have taken plenty out of her. Will she have enough left in the tank to get the better of a McCartney Kessler who looked in fine form when beating world number five Mirra Andreeva in straight sets last time out? I think not. More importantly, I don't think the early market quite has it right here. I saw plenty of evidence to suggest that Kessler can get the win here last time out, evidence that isn't accurately reflected by the early odds ahead of this one.
