That's because both of these players are in uncharted territory; neither has a won a Grand Slam title before, and indeed neither has even been beyond the quarter-finals of a slam.
That might seem a bit surprising in Jabeur's case at least, because the Tunisian is the World no.2 and was seeded 3 at Wimbledon. Then again, she's had something of a meteoric rise; Jabeur, 27, only entered the top 50 in 2020, but has improved steadily since then. She's in form and seems ready to join the upper echelons, having beaten the likes of Elise Mertens, Marie Bouzkova and Tatjana Maria to reach the final.
The same could be said of Rybakina, who entered the top 50 in 2019 but who has soared up the rankings in the past year or two. The Russian-born Kazakhstani is tall, at 6ft, and powerful, and defeated the former champion Simona Halep in Thursday's semi-final.
These two have met three times before, with Jabeur holding a 2-1 advantage. But none have been on grass, and certainly none have been as high-profile as this one — so it's anyone's guess who will win. You can find out by watching a Rybakina vs Jabeur live stream.

How to watch the Rybakina vs Jabeur live stream from anywhere with a VPN
A VPN, or virtual private network, makes it look as if you're surfing the web from your home country, rather than the one you're in. That means you can access the streaming services you already pay for, from anywhere on Earth. Or anywhere that has an internet connection, at least.
For instance, a Brit who's currently in the U.S. could watch the Rybakina vs Jabeur live stream on BBC iPlayer, even though they're not in the U.K.
They're totally legal, inexpensive and easy to use. We've tested lots of the best VPN services and our favorite right now is ExpressVPN. It's fast, works on loads of devices and even offers a 30-day money-back guarantee.

How to watch the Rybakina vs Jabeur live stream in the US
The Rybakina vs Jabeur live stream will be shown on ESPN as part of its extensive coverage from the All England Lawn Tennis Club.
ESPN is available through most cable packages as well as some of the best cable TV alternatives, including Sling TV, Fubo.TV, YouTube TV and Hulu with Live TV.
Our pick of these would be Sling TV: the Sling Orange package costs just $35 per month and comes with more than 30 channels including ESPN3. Plus, right now Sling is offering 50% off the first month.
As well as being available through your cable service, you can also stream the action via the ESPN app, or on the Watch section of ESPN's website. However, you'll need to authenticate with your satellite, cable or live TV provider credentials to watch any sessions.
And remember, if you're usually based in the U.S. but aren't there at the moment, you can still watch the services you already subscribe to via a VPN such as ExpressVPN.

How to watch the Rybakina vs Jabeur live stream in Australia
Aussies will be able to watch the Rybakina vs Jabeur live stream on Channel Nine or on its on-demand service 9Now.
That's great news wherever you are, because 9Now is available for free; all you need is an Australian postcode. That means Australians who aren't in the country right now will simply need to sign up to a VPN such as ExpressVPN in order to watch all the action as if they were back home.
However, 9Now won't have every single match. While big ties such as the Rybakina vs Jabeur live stream will be on the service, to be sure of watching every Wimbledon 2022 match, ad-free and in up to 4K resolution, you'll want a subscription to Stan Sport.
Stan can be accessed via a wide variety of devices including many smart TVs, iOS and Android phones, Chromecast, Apple TV and more — plus it costs a very reasonable $20 AUD per month ($10 for a standard subscription and $10 for the Sport add-on). A 30-day FREE trial gives you a taste of the platform — and the good news is that the Sport add-on also has a 7-day FREE trial.
You'll need to pay extra to access HD or 4K streams and to increase the number of devices you watch on, but even if you go for the full-fat Premium sub with the Sport add-on, you'd still only be looking at $29/month.
As well as the Wimbledon live streams, Stan also has Champions League 21/22 live streams, Champions League soccer coverage and a huge amount of live rugby.
