Fourth seed Jessica Pegula will face long-term rival Liudmila Samsonova in the quarter-finals of the Brisbane International. Read on for our prediction of this match, their seventh meeting in history.
Samsonova has had a strong week thus far, winning both of her matches without dropping a set. She defeated the wildcard Emerson Jones in her tournament opener and then the qualifier Aliaksandra Sasnovich to reach the last eight.
Samsonova, who has dropped to 18th in the live ranking despite her unbeaten start to the year, has beaten Pegula twice. She won their most recent meeting in June on her way to the semi-finals in Berlin.
Jessica Pegula has the upper hand in this series. She has defeated Samsonova four times, with one of those triumphs being a dominant 6-1, 6-0 victory in the final in Montreal in 2023.
With this record, she will be confident of extending her debut in Brisbane into the semi-finals. The world number six needed a deciding third set to win both of her matches this week.
She defeated Anna Kalinskaya in her opening fixture and then Dayana Yastremska in the last round. A nine-time tour champion, Pegula has won 15 of the last 18 tour quarter-finals she has contested.

Our Liudmila Samsonova vs Jessica Pegula Prediction
Our prediction for Liudmila Samsonova v Jessica Pegula is - Exact score: 1-2. Pegula and Samsonova are well known to one another, having played each other six times before. As a result, just as it has been in their past duels, we expect a third deciding set here.
At the end of that decider, we are backing Pegula to book her ticket into the next round. The American has won four times against Samsonova and is unbeaten against the Russian on hard courts. Another reason for this prediction is Samsonova’s dismal record when facing off with the WTA’s top players.
