Liudmila Samsonova and Yulia Putintseva are set to face off for the second time in their careers when they meet in the first round in Cincinnati. Samsonova has the chance to avenge her loss in this clash two years ago in Miami. That encounter ended in three sets, and in our prediction for this match we are backing the same.

Putintseva will be looking to avoid another early exit after her first-round elimination in Toronto. She fell in straight sets at the hands of Shuai Zhang, but having the head-to-head advantage here should boost her confidence.

The Kazakh returns to Cincinnati for the first time in two years and will be looking to go past her best here - the third round.

Samsonova isn’t having an easy campaign and comes here on a losing run. After her fourth-round exit at the Canadian Open, the Russian is on a 15-19 record.

Her three wins there before losing to Elena Rybakina in three sets pushed her hardcourt numbers to 9-10, and she will be looking to better that in this event.

In her season, though, early exits have outnumbered deep runs, with the 27-year-old losing eight times in the first round.

Her highlights for the season are the three quarter-final appearances in Washington, Brisbane, and Abu Dhabi. On her fifth appearance here, Samsonova is a former Cincinnati quarter-finalist

Our Yulia Putintseva vs Liudmila Samsonova Prediction

Yulia Putintseva is having a slightly better campaign than Liudmila Samsonova and will be keen on extending her head-to-head advantage in this fixture. It will not be a walk in the park, though, as Samsonova is not only targeting revenge but also looking to better her season.

Neither of the players is coming here on a strong run, as both have occasionally dropped sets. Their only previous meeting also saw a deciding set played, and we expect an exciting contest here. Our prediction for Yulia Putintseva v Liudmila Samsonova is for more than 2.5 sets.
