Just 4 players remain in the 2020 US Open women’s draw and from them, we have two top four seeds that made their way to the semi-final as was expected from them. One of them is number #3 seed Naomi Osaka and we encourage you to take a look at our betting preview of Semi Final 1 between Osaka and Jennifer Brady.
On the other hand, we have number #4 seed and 6-time US Open champion Serena Williams who has reached this stage of a grand slam too many times in her career, with 23 grand slam titles under her belt already! She’s come back from a long break from the game and now, she’s all set to take on Belarusian Victoria Azarenka, 7 years younger to her, in Semi Final 2 of the US Open 2020!
It’s a battle of the moms as both try to make their way to the US Open final. Azarenka has bagged 2 Grand Slam titles in the past and though she’s unseeded in this tournament, she’s done well so far! Though Serena is more experienced and aggressive, Azarenka has had a more stable approach as compared to Serena, the latter seemingly vulnerable at times. Back Azarenka to win at odds of 1.98 with BetWinner!
2020 US Open so far
Azarenka has sent out 3 seeded players in her journey so far this tournament, dropping just one set in those 5 games, when she lost the first set to Karolina Muchova! In the quarter final, it was a fairly one-sided affair as she demolished 16th seed Elise Mertens 6-1, 6-0. She’s bringing a lot of confidence into this semi-final match. I’ll back her from the start as there isn’t much between them in terms of pre-match odds.

As for Williams, it’s been a bumpy road so far. She won in straight sets in Round 1 and Round 2 but since then, she lost the first set in all her matches against Sloane Stephens, Maria Sakkari and Tsvetana Pironkova respectively. She came back in the quarters against Pironkova to win and make this match happen. If you’re backing Serena, wait for her to drop a set before placing a bet on her tonight!
Williams vs Azarenka head to head
These two have enjoyed a good rivalry over the years with Serena leading 18-4 in previous meetings, including two US Open finals in 2012 and 2013, both of which were won by Serena. However, it doesn’t truly reflect how tight their matches have been over the years, with Serena leading 9-4 on hard courts.
In their last meeting in 2015, Serena won in 3 sets and overall, 7 of their last 12 matches together have gone to the deciding set. Both are in good form and we think it’s good to be a battle to watch out for. While both are almost equal favourites, we think Azarenka could go on to win in straight sets, so we’d recommend that bet at odds of 3.05 with BetWinner!
