Prop Bets: Yuliia Starodubtseva VS Jasmine Paolini 2025-05-30
The French Open is heating up, and we've got a real barnburner of a match on our hands with Yuliia Starodubtseva taking on Jasmine Paolini. Now, I know what you're thinking - Paolini is the heavy favorite here, with odds ranging from 1.05 to 1.09 across various bookmakers. And let's be real, she's been playing some incredible tennis this season, including a recent win in Rome. But don't count out Starodubtseva just yet, folks! She's been on a tear lately, with 9 wins in her last 16 matches, and she's already taken down some big names like Anastasia Potapova and Tamara Zidansek.
As for the odds, Paolini is sitting pretty at -6.5 games across most bookmakers, with prices ranging from 1.74 to 1.91. And if you're feeling fancy, you can grab Starodubtseva at +6.5 games, with prices ranging from 1.83 to 1.99. The over/under is set at 17.5 or 18.5 games, depending on the bookmaker, with prices ranging from 1.69 to 2.05 for the over and 1.78 to 2.0 for the under.
Now, I'm not saying Starodubtseva is going to pull off the upset of the century or anything, but she's definitely got the potential to make this a close match. And hey, if you're feeling like a rebel, you can grab her at 8.0 to 10.5 to win outright, depending on the bookmaker. But let's be real, folks - Paolini is the one to beat here. So, my prediction? Paolini takes it in straight sets, but Starodubtseva makes her work for it. Take Paolini -6.5 games and the under 18.5 games for a fun little parlay. And hey, if you want to get really crazy, you can try a player prop bet on Paolini to win in straight sets - just don't say I didn't warn you!
