Amanda Anisimova vs Madison Keys Tips, Prediction & Live Stream

Anisimova and Keys both suffered heavy straight sets defeats in their opening WTA Finals matches - Anisimova was crushed 3-6 1-6 by Elena Rybakina, while Keys managed just three games in a one-sided affair against Iga Swiatek. With their semi-finals hopes on the line, both players need to bounce back with a strong performance here.

I have to lean with Anisimova - she has been one of the form players in the world over the last few months and arrived in Riyadh for her debut WTA Finals appearance having won 26 of her last 32 matches. Keys meanwhile hadn't played a match since her first round US Open exit and is without a victory in the last 80 days since Cincinnati. Can't back the Australian Open champion with basically no match practice at the moment, so tipping Anisimova to cover and get off the mark in Riyadh.

Head To Head

This will be the first career meeting between the two Americans.

Amanda Anisimova Form

Anisimova has put together a 45-17 record on the season, rising to a career-high No. 4 in the world and qualifying for the WTA Finals for the first time.

It's been a stellar season for Anisimova - she's made two Grand Slam finals at Wimbledon and the US Open, where it took the world's top two players in Iga Swiatek and Aryna Sabalenka to stop her.

Additionally, Anisimova secured two WTA 1000 titles in Doha and Beijing, continuing what has been a magical comeback to the tour after an extended break during recent years.

Anisimova defeated fellow WTA Finals qualifiers Coco Gauff and Jasmine Paolini en route to that aforementioned title in Beijing, but she couldn't extend that momentum into Riyadh, where she went down in a disappointing straight sets defeat to Elena Rybakina in her opening match.

Madison Keys Form

Keys heads into this encounter with a 37-14 record on the year, qualifying for the WTA Finals for just the second time in her career.

Most of the American's good work came during the opening month of the year - indeed, 14 of her 37 victories were in January, including a maiden Grand Slam title at the Australian Open and also claiming the silverware in Adelaide.

Keys' momentum has stalled since then, but she still did enough to make the season-ending championships, reaching at least quarter-finals at Indian Wells, Madrid, Roland Garros and Montreal.

However, Keys is in poor form at the moment - she hasn't won a match since Cincinnati and her first outing since the US Open was rusty, going down 6-1 6-2 to Swiatek in less than an hour.

Verdict

Amanda Anisimova v Madison Keys

Keys is underdone and out of form, while Anisimova had won 26 of her last 32 matches coming into this tournament.

Anisimova is the player most likely to turn things around after the pair both suffered opening straight sets defeats.
