🔍 Match Breakdown

Both bring uneven hard-court campaigns, but their recent arcs diverge: Cocciaretto has stacked a few confidence wins (Osaka qualies; BJK Cup) and pushed a tight tiebreak in Osaka MD, while Parry’s Asian swing has been rough, including two heavy losses to Putintseva. The Madrid result keeps this close—Parry’s variety can still bother Coco when the timing clicks—but on current form the Italian looks a touch sturdier in long games and late sets.

First-strike efficiency and holding from 30–30 will be key. If Cocciaretto cleans up the short forehand and protects the second serve, she should be able to ride her recent rhythm; if Parry jumps early on second-serve looks and mixes the pace, she can drag this into a coin-flip third.

🔮 Prediction

Lean Cocciaretto to advance—form edge and slightly better recent resilience tip it her way despite the Madrid reminder. Call it Cocciaretto in two tight sets (with a live third very plausible if Parry lands early returns).

Market snapshot: ~1.48 vs 2.61 (≈67.6% vs 38.3% implied with vig) — broadly aligned with current trajectories.

📊 Tale of the Tape (Qualitative)

• Form trend: Edge Cocciaretto — recent wins & late-set grit vs Parry’s choppy Asia swing.
• H2H: 1–1; Madrid ’25 favors Parry, older ITF ’19 favors Cocciaretto.
• Serve/return dynamic: Coco’s hold stability vs Parry’s early-attack returns.
• Key inflection: 30–30 and second-serve protection for Cocciaretto; front-running bursts for Parry.
• Set shape: Tight sets likely; decider live if Parry lands first-strike patterns.
