Both of these players are attempting to reach their first Australian Open final. Second seed Iga Swiatek takes on the 19th-seeded Madison Keys for a place in the title decider of this outdoor hard court Grand Slam. Who'll be a finalist? Read our match prediction below.
This is only her second Australian Open semi-final, the other being in 2022. The Pole has been in tremendous form in this tournament. Five wins have come with only 14 games lost and half of those came in the first round.
The quarter-finals saw her beat eighth-seed Emma Navarro 6-1 6-2. Swiatek is back up to world number one in the live rankings but will only stay there if getting a better result than Aryna Sabalenka in this tournament.
Madison Keys is in her third Australian Open semi-final and her first since 2022. The American has already won one title this year with success in Adelaide. It's been a tougher route to the last four for the 29-year-old who is tenth in the live rankings.
Keys has had to go to a final set three times so far. That includes her quarter-final against Elina Svitolina after losing the first set. Only one of her five previous matches against Swiatek has been won and that was three years ago.
We tip Swiatek to win in straight sets.

Iga Swiatek continues her bid to win this title for the first time and return to world number one. A win here would achieve the latter if Aryna Sabalenka were to lose to Paula Badosa in the other semi-final.
The Pole has been dominating her opponents in this tournament with only five games lost in her last seven sets played. This will be her toughest match to date against an in-form Madison Keys who loves this tournament but it's hard to oppose Swiatek.
Our Madison Keys v Iga Swiatek prediction is Iga Swiatek to win in straight sets.
