THE PREDICTION

World number 25 Madison Keys put in an excellent display to beat Coco Gauff on Friday, running through to the Eastbourne International final without dropping a set. The former number seven won her first WTA titles here back in 2014 and she added a second on grass in Birmingham two years later, with her most recent of six career titles coming in Adelaide early last season. World number 11 Daria Kasatkina has endured the much tougher draw this week, coming back from a set down to beat former champion Karolina Pliskova before seeing off world number four Caroline Garcia and three-time semi-finalist here Camila Giorgi. The 26-year-old enjoyed some of the best tennis of her career last summer but it has been an odd year so far, with a total capitulation in her previous final at Adelaide 2 in January throwing some doubt over this 13th tour final.

Keys leads the Russian 8-2 in a storied head-to-head stretching back to the Rio Olympics in 2016 but Kasatkina has won two of their last three encounters, both in three sets, including in Charleston in April. Keys has earned at least a set in all 10 of their matches to offer the sensible pick here but it does feel like the Russian’s match to lose.
