It’s an All-Russian first-round affair in Stuttgart as Ekaterina Alexandrova goes head-to-head with Liudmila Samsonova at the 2025 Porsche Tennis Grand Prix.
Alexandrova will be trying to build on her semifinal stint at the 2025 Charleston Open. The world’s No.22 had run into a slump of four consecutive losses before she bounced back with a final four appearance at a WTA 500 event in Charleston.
Samsonova is set to play her first clay court match this year on Tuesday. The Russian is grinding through another up and down year, which saw her playing in the quarterfinal of the Indian Wells Open before bowing out in the first round of the next tournament to Naomi Osaka 6-2 6-4 in Miami.

Our Ekaterina Alexandrova vs Liudmila Samsonova Prediction
Ekaterina Alexandrova enters her fourth duel with Liudmila Samsonova with a 2-1 series lead, but the latter won their latest matchup 6-3 6-7(1) 6-1 at the 2024 Libema Open (grass). Tuesday’s first-round battle in Stuttgart will mark the first time they play each other on clay. Both players hold solid records on the red dirt, so predicting the winner here is a tad harder than other matches in Stuttgart. However, Alexandrova seems to enjoy a little bit of edge because of her recent deep run stint in Charleston, where she took the eventual winner, Jessica Pegula to the limit in a thrilling three-set showdown 6-2 2-6 7-5. Our betting prediction for Liudmila Samsonova vs. Ekaterina Alexandrova: Ekaterina Alexandrova will cover -2.5 games.
