Command Analysis

Liudmila Samsonova

Samsonova had a bad start on the grass. A week ago in 'S-Hertogenbosch, she lost in the first round to a lesser-known opponent, Branstin (4-6, 7-5, 1-6). In Berlin, Lyudmila did not allow herself to misfire at the start, although the duel with Osaka was predictably difficult. In that meeting, the Japanese tennis player seized the initiative, led the score, but nevertheless Samsonova found the strength and turned the game in her favor (3-6, 7-6, 6-4).

Jessica Pegula

Pegula was not stable during the clay part of the season, but nevertheless she managed to make it to the 1/8 finals at Roland Garros. Jessica was in no hurry to switch to grass, she will only play her first match in Berlin today. She won this tournament a year ago, and there is no doubt that she is motivated to defend her ranking points.

3.10Tip and bets
Samsonova and Pegula know each other well, as they have played each other five times. The American won four head-to-head matches, while Lyudmila won her only victory on the grass. Jessica will play her first grass match of the season today and is unlikely to be able to show her maximum right away. Samsonova has already played out on this surface and may well compete for victory with the right attitude. We believe that bookmakers somewhat underestimate the capabilities of the Russian woman.
Our betting tip is that Samsonova will win with a handicap of (+3) games with a coefficient of 1.77
