Odds updated at 00:00 am UK Time on November 13 2024.
Betexpert members can look forward to -105 odds in favor of Victorio Mboko in this match! In the States, McNally is given -120, while Mboko receives -110, meaning a slight premium needs to be paid for the former.
Caty McNally is considered favored, even against less-accomplished opponents, due to her missing substantial time on the court in 2024. The American ranks 817th for the season, having spent a prolonged period away from the court, from February 22nd to November 5th, and only appearing in four tournaments in 2024. McNally finished last year with a ranking of 148th. Elbow surgery in March had threatened to curtail her season, but she managed to recover.
Born in Charlotte, North Carolina, and hailing from Burlington, Ontario, Canada, Victorio Mboko boasts a ranking of 350th in the WTA Rankings for this event. Despite being initially ranked at 247, she has subsequently slipped in the ranks after reaching the junior Majors finals twice. At only 18 years old, Mboko already demonstrates promising potential, standing at 5' 10" and adeptly covering the court during lengthy exchanges to maintain her advantage.
Betexpert experts advocate placing a wager on Mboko, considering the -110 or -105 odds available for her to advance to the second round in Austin.
VICTORIA MBOKO RECENT PERFORMANCE
Mboko has amassed a tournament win in each of the previous three seasons since her debut at 16 years old. She has never incurred a losing record on any surface in three seasons – primarily participating at the ITF level. This season, Mboko tallies 8 wins on hard courts, contributing to her overall campaign record of 24 – 12.
CATY MCNALLY RECENT PERFORMANCE
McNally has a subpar 2-4 record this season, with participation limited by elbow surgery in March. In 2023, McNally mustered a 5-6 victory count on hard courts while facing numerous injury problems. The former tournament champion has only secured one title since the 2019 season and achieved a career-best ranking of 93rd in 2022.
