Luxembourg -- Sixth-seeded German Sabine Lisicki and unseeded Timea Bacsinszky of Switzerland were semifinal winners Saturday at the Luxembourg Open tennis tournament.

Lisicki battled to a 6-3, 4-6, 7-6 (7-5) victory against Israel's Shahar Peer.

Bacsinszky also rallied in her 3-6, 6-2, 7-5 win over No. 5 seed Yanina Wickmayer of Belgium.

The winner of Sunday's Lisicki-Bacsinszky final will claim a $37,000 champion's check.

Lisicki is 1-1 in career finals appearances, and the 20-year-old Bacsinszky will attempt to win a tournament in her first final.
