Elena Rybakina has already guaranteed herself a place in the WTA Finals knockout stages. Her final round-robin indoor hard court match sees her face Madison Keys who has lost both of her matches this week. Here's our match prediction.
Rybakina is playing in this tournament for the third time. Both the other appearances in 2023 and 2024 saw her fail to reach the knockout stages. Not this year though, after a straight sets win over Amanda Anisimova, Rybakina beat Iga Swiatek on Monday.
The first set was lost in that match but Rybakina stunned her opponent by only losing one game in the next two.
Madison Keys is in deep trouble in this group, The 2025 Australian Open champion is playing her first tournament since August. Only three games were won in her opening match against Swiatek. After going a set up against Anisimova, Keys lost the next two.
This is the seventh match between these two players. The score is level at 3-3 but Keys trails Rybakina 3-2 in hard court matches. Keys did beat her opponent in this year's Australian Open but lost their most recent meeting in Cincinnati.
Keys still looks a bit rusty and our prediction here is a Rybakina straight sets victory.

Our Elena Rybakina vs Madison Keys Prediction
Elena Rybakina is unlikely to take her foot off the pedal for this match. Winning the group is important and beating Keys will also earn Rybakina another $355,000. The win over Swiatek will have meant a lot to Rybakina after losing to the Pole four times this year.
Madison Keys has lost both of her matches in this tournament and can't make it into the semi-finals. The American will want to leave Riyadh with at least one win but the lack of recent matches isn't helping her. Our Elena Rybakina v Madison Keys prediction is Elena Rybakina wins in straight sets.
