Quarterfinals.
Melbourne.
Surprisingly, Krejcikova and Keys have never crossed paths on tour. Both are in great shape to have made it this far at the Australian Open. The bookmakers favour the Czech, although you can't call Barbora the odds-on favourite.

In the last 16, Barbora did not notice Victoria Azarenka, who had previously shown excellent form. Krejcikova defeated the Belarusian 6:2, 6:2 confidently. Before beating Azarenka, Krejcikova knocked out Petkovic, Xue Wang and Ostapenko, losing only one set. It is also worth recalling that before the Australian Open, the Czech tennis player reached the final of the tournament in Sydney, in which she lost in three sets to Badosa.
Madison Keys
In the last 16 of the Australian Open, Keys beat Badosa quickly enough with a score of 6:3, 6:1. However, it is necessary to pay attention to the Spaniard's form was on the decline. The peak happened just in Sydney. We had already seen Badosa in the match against Kostyuk. Madison was stronger than Kenin, Christian and Wang Qiang before beating Badosa. Before AO, the American won the tournament in Adelaide, beating Riske in the final. In general, the winning streak of Keys has already reached ten matches. Also, note that Keys was not even in the top 80 just two weeks ago, now she is in the top 40, and if she beats, Krejcikova will move even higher.
Expert Betting Tips
The girls have not played with each other. Both show in Melbourne excellent form, stability and the will to win. Not a simple choice, but we are on the side of the Czech athlete in the pair. We believe that Barbora, just for the decisive matches of AO, will be at its peak form. Keys will not cope with the power and stability of Krejčíková.
