If you're the kind of person who likes to chew on facts like a kangaroo chews on grass, then feast your eyes on this tasty tidbit. Madison Keys, the 19th seed, is going racket-to-racket against Danielle Collins, the 11th seed, at the glorious Melbourne Park. Now that's a sight for sore eyes, huh?

Let's lounge back for a bit and put our feet up as we throw our mind's eye back to the last time they met. Our girl Madison, served Danielle a double scoop of defeat, icing the match with a resounding 2 sets to love. It was more like watching a re-run of some sitcom, where we all knew how it was going to end!

Recently, Keys has shown some flashy form, with 4 victories in her last 5 outings, playing musical chairs with her opponents' hopes and dreams. However, Danielle hasn't exactly been swatting flies either. Snapping back from a couple of setbacks, she triumphed in her last 2 matches.

Now, buoyed by the economical laws of our dearly beloved sport that don't necessarily abide by common sense, odds are skewing way more towards Madison Keys. I wouldn't wager my house on it, but looks like it's going to be a decent battle on those medium-fast courts in Down Under.

Stepping out of my dandy shoes for a moment, let's get down to the brass tacks. Even though Collins is seeded higher, the overall momentum and past head-to-head seem to nudge Keys a tad ahead. But hey, don't be stuck in your lazy boy if a set or so goes astray. That's the fun with a racquet and a neon-green ball, right?

Albert's Prediction: Keys in 3 sets.
