THE PREDICTION
This will be an intriguing fifth clash between compatriots Veronika Kudermetova and Ekaterina Alexandrova with their head-to-head finely poised at 2-2. Alexandrova has beaten Kudermetova en-route to successive titles at ‘s-Hertogenbosch, including in a three-set comeback in the final last summer, but Kudermetova won their only meeting on a hardcourt at the China Open back in 2019. World number 16 Kudermetova beat Ashlyn Krueger in straight sets on Tuesday to bounce back from a tough defeat to Anastasia Potapova in Brisbane last week whilst Alexandrova came back from a set down to oust Magda Linette via an impressive 10-8 middle tiebreak. The world number 21 arguably has the better grit of the two, as depicted by that fight back, whilst Kudermetova has the higher ceiling in terms of ability. Considering that grit, Alexandrova has earned at least a set in each of their last three encounters to offer a suitable alternative to picking a tough result here.
TIP: EKATERINA ALEXANDROVA TO WIN A SET
