Elina Svitolina v Marketa Vondrousova
Svitolina opened her campaign with a straight sets victory over Venus Williams and the unseeded player knocked out two seeds on route to her quarter-final against top seed Swiatek. The Ukrainian was on her game from her start winning the first set 7-5 before going down 7-6 in the second set tie breaker. She was too strong in the 3rd though winning 6-2 to book her spot in the last 4.
She meets her fellow unseeded player Vondrousova who knocked out 12th seed, Kudermetova in straight sets in her second round match. She also saw off 20th seed, Vekic in two sets before winning 6-3 in the third set against Bouzkova in her round of 16 clash. She was up against 4th seed, Pegula in her quarter-final and after winning the first set 6-4 and dropping the second 6-2 she won 6-4 in the third.
HEAD-TO-HEAD
The pair have met 5 times with Svitolina winning the first 3, but Vondrousova has won the last 2 in straight sets, the most recent meeting coming in a semi-final of the Tokyo Olympics in 2021.

Ons Jabeur v Aryna Sabalenka – Click here to bet
Sixth seed Jabeur really comes into her own at Wimbledon and she is enjoying an excellent Tournament. She won her first two rounds in straight sets before been taken to 3 sets by Andreescu in the 3rd round. in the round of 16 she beat Kvitova the 9th seed in quick time before coming from a set down to roll over defending Champ (and conqueror in last years final) Rybakina 6-7, 6-4, 6-1 in her quarter-final.
Second seed, Sabalenka’s toughest match to date came in her 2nd round encounter where she lost the first set 6-2 to unseeded Gravecha before coming back to win the next two sets 7-5, 6-2. She hasn’t dropped a set since and she was too strong for 25th seed Madison Keys in her quarter-final winning 6-2, 6-4.
HEAD-TO-HEAD
Sabalenka and Jabeur have met 4 times with Sabalenka winning 3 and Jabeur once. Sabalenka has won the lost 3 on the trot. These two meet in Wimbledon 2021 quarter-final where Sabalenka won 6-4, 6-3.

Ons Jabeur 13/10
Aryna Sabalenka 8/13
Both of these girls are playing great tennis, but I have been particularly impressed by Ons Jabeur and I am backing her to book her spot in the final for a 2nd year running.
Suggested bet: Ons Jabeur win at 13/10
