Coco Gauff takes on Dayana Yastremska at the French Open. Our French Open odds series has our Gauff Yastremska prediction and pick. Find out how to watch Gauff Yastremska.
The 2024 French Open moves into the third round. Coco Gauff, the U.S. Open champion and a 2022 Roland Garros finalist, has looked solid in her first two matches. She had a brief amount of trouble with Tamara Zidansek in the second round, falling behind by a break, but she quickly regrouped and took care of the match without too much trouble. Gauff is a great fighter, meaning that if she encounters in-match adversity, she is really good about immediately resetting on a mental level and playing the next game, the next point, with clarity and inner calm. That is something the elite tennis players have, and which second-tier tennis players struggle to gain. However, just because Gauff is good at bouncing back does not mean she will always bounce back. If a player struggles in one match after another, that player is asking for difficulty. Zidansek was not good enough to make Gauff pay for brief periods of inconsistency, but other players will be better, and they might make Gauff regret 10 minutes of less-than-great tennis.
Dayana Yastremska has the capacity to make this a difficult day at the office.
Yastremska, for those who do not follow tennis very closely, hits the ball extremely hard and is a player who, when locked in, can be really difficult to beat. Yastremska made the Australian Open semifinals earlier this year, so she now has proof that she can make a deep run at a major tournament. She is worth taking very seriously even though the American sporting public probably has no idea who she is. Gauff is rightly a clear favorite, but if she struggles, this could become a very contentious match in Paris.

Why Coco Gauff Could Cover The Spread
The spread of 6.5 games for this match means that if Gauff wins at least one set 6-2 (four games), she has a very good chance of covering the spread. If Gauff can win 6-2, 6-3, she will cover. She would win 12 games to just five for Yastremska. Gauff has shown reasonably good form this week, and if she is really sharp at the outset, she could demoralize Yastremska and take control of the match.
Why Dayana Yastremska Could Cover The Spread
If Yastremska can win three games in each set, she will cover. If she loses 6-3, 6-3, that's 12 games to six, which means Yastremska covers +6.5 games. Given that Yastremska reached a major semifinal earlier this year, and given that her career is in a relatively good place, the odds of her covering are actually good, and the pricing of the games and over-unders in this match reflects that. As long as the match is not a blowout, Yastremska should cover, and that's the probable outcome.
Final Coco Gauff-Dayana Yastremska Prediction & Pick
You should bet on total games in this match. Let's say Gauff wins 7-5, 6-1. She would cover the 6.5-game spread, but only barely. If Gauff wins a 7-5 first set, the chances of her covering the spread in the second set are remote. You would have more safety betting total games, because you know there are at least six games in any set. If you bet the over and there is a 7-5 or 7-6 set in this match, which is very possible, you have almost certainly won the bet. That's probably better than going for a straight bet on the spread, which is very uncertain.
Final Coco Gauff-Dayana Yastremska Prediction & Pick: Match over 18.5 games
