THE PREDICTION

World number 29 Liudmila Samsonova burst onto the scene here last season with a stunning run to her first WTA title at the German Open, beating Belinda Bencic in the final. The 23-year-old beat Veronika Kudermetova at this exact stage here last season to suggest a repeat performance but world number 24 Kudermetova is in some serious form this time around and she took their second encounter in straight sets at Indian Wells last October. 25-year-old Kudermetova shocked the third seed Aryna Sabalenka in three sets on Tuesday to back-up her run to the semi-finals of the Libema Open on grass last week. Despite Samsonova’s clear penchant for the grass the form player is Kudermetova here and taking the elder Russian to win at least a set as the likelier of two very capable winners seems wise in leaving the victor up to chance.
