Ekaterina Alexandrova vs Linda Noskova prediction
Ekaterina Alexandrova defeated Gabriela Knutson in straight sets to book her place in the next round of the Stuttgart Open. The Russian, who reached the semi-finals of this event last year, was not broken on serve as she wrapped up a 6-2 6-2 win after one hour and three minutes. Alexandrova has struggled in terms of results in this campaign, aside from a run to the final of the Abu Dhabi Open two months ago.
She faces Linda Noskova in the next stage. The Czech battled past Shuai Zhang in three sets. Noskova dropped the first set but came back strongly in the second. She maintained her level in the decider to win 5-7 6-1 6-4 after one hour and 43 minutes. Noskova’s best result of the season so far was a semi-final appearance at Indian Wells last month.
This will be their second meeting, with Alexandrova winning the first last year in Monterrey after a three set win. Neither player has been as consistent as they were in 2025, and this could prove to be another close match between the pair, who are separated by just one place in the world rankings.
