Command Analysis

Liudmila Samsonova

Liudmila Samsonova's transition to clay was unsuccessful in this season. In first three tournaments on this surface Russian player won only one match. Parma tournament is also not easy for Liudmila.

In the decisive qualification match Samsonova lost to Pigato (6:2, 6:7, 3:6). Russian player managed to get into the main draw as a lucky loser. In the first round she was drawn to an obscure Italian player Gatto-Moticone and Liudmila secured an easy victory in straight sets (6:2, 6:2). Her next match will be against a mighty Petra Martic, Samsonova lost to her in the previous year at Palermo and in the current year at Adelaide.

Petra Martic

Ranked 23rd in the WTA rankings, Petra Martic had a slow start of the 2021 year and couldn't find her game for a long time. Experienced Croatian player finally had a breakthrough at Rome tournament last week, where she reached the semi-final.

Looks like Petra wants to continue her great run at Parma. In the starting match she secured a confident win over Varvara Gracheva (6:4, 6:2). Her next match will be against another Russian player, she already has two wins over her.
