There are plenty of exciting matches due to take place at the WTA event in Doha on Tuesday. During the early hours for US viewers, Ekaterina Alexandrova and Madga Linette will renew their rivalry for the first time in 2026. Having played each other on six occasions since 2019, these two players know plenty about each other. Given that she's a strong favorite, you could be forgiven for assuming that Alexandrova has a strong record against the Pole, but that's not the case. Not only did Linette win when the two last met, but the Polish competitor has won four out of six against the Russian, so don't be fooled into thinking that this will be plain sailing for the higher-ranked player.
Moreover, Magda Linette has already played at this tournament, so she may be slightly better prepared than Alexandrova, who hasn't played competitively since losing to Jelena Ostapenko in straight sets a week ago. On that evidence, she'll need to improve to easily justify her early market support.

Our Ekaterina Alexandrova vs Magda Linette Prediction
Ekaterina Alexandrova comes into this match as quite a hot favorite, but I'm not quite sure that she should be so strong in the market. Is she a worthy favorite? Sure. Is she worthy of being priced at -238? Not quite. Magda Linette knows how to tussle with Alexandrova, there can be no denying that, while she has the benefot of already having played a match on these courts.
When the pair last met on a hard surface, Linette won, while she's never lost to Alexandrova in straight sets on a hard court, which is quite impressive given that the pair have had four such matches. Frankly, she's generously priced to, at the very least, avoid a straight-set defeat.
Our Ekaterina Alexandrova vs Magda Linette Pick: Magda Linette +1.5 Set Handicap.
