Marta Kostyuk vs Linda Noskova Preview

Marta Kostyuk beat big-hitting Ekaterina Alexandrova to reach the fourth round of the US Open for the second consecutive season. Kostyuk cruised past the Russian 6-3, 6-2 in an hour and 18 minutes of play. In the victory, Kostyuk hit 23 winners and committed 17 unforced errors. Kostyuk hit 4 aces and 4 double faults in the match.

Kostyuk landed 52% of first serves in play and won 75% of first serve points (21/28). The Ukrainian won 54% of second serve points (14/26) and saved two of four break points in the match. Before this round, Kostyuk beat Storm Hunter and Sloane Stephens. She has not dropped a set in the tournament. Except for the Australian Open, Kostyuk has reached the second week in each of the last three majors. 

Wimbledon champion Linda Noskova has reached the last 16 at the US Open for the first time. Noskova saw off Ann Li in three sets to progress. The Czech won the first set 6-2 in under half an hour. But despite being a double break up in the second set, Noskova could not seal the match in two. Li won a 66-minute second set in a tiebreak after saving a match point. Luckily for Noskova, it was only a blip, and she broke Li twice in the closing stages of the third set to win the match.

Noskova hit 34 winners and committed 34 unforced errors in the match. She tallied 9 aces and 5 double faults. Noskova landed 56% of first serves in play and won 72% of first serve points (38/53). She won 55% of second serve points (23/42) and saved three of five break points.

Marta Kostyuk vs Linda Noskova Head-To-Head

Kostyuk and Noskova have met twice. The head-to-head is tied at 1-1. Kostyuk won their first meeting in Madrid en route to her first WTA 1000 title. Noskova avenged that loss by beating Kostyuk on her way to win her first Grand Slam at Wimbledon.
 

Marta Kostyuk vs Linda Noskova Prediction

This is their third meeting in 2026, and I am leaning toward Kostyuk here. She’s been in near-immaculate form and has already taken out a big hitter (Alexandrova) en route to the fourth round. Noskova’s ceiling is probably higher, but Kostyuk’s consistency is something I can rely on here. She can neutralize Noskova’s power with her movement and aggressive returning.
