Editorial Prediction (June 21, 2025, UTC):

Kessler exhibits a slight edge in several key areas, including second serve and return game performance over recent months. These factors are critical in shaping the match's outcome and might give Kessler a marginal but notable advantage.

Despite Yastremska's impressive breakpoint-saving abilities, Kessler's overall win rate and proficiency on indoor hard courts could be determining factors, particularly given her past victory over Yastremska on a similar surface.

While Yastremska may pose a challenge with her resilience under pressure, Kessler's robust record in deciding sets suggests a slight favoritism if the match extends beyond two sets.

Overall, based on these factors, Kessler appears more poised to claim victory in the upcoming match, despite the expected competitive tension.
