Clara Tauson takes on fellow unseeded player Anastasia Potapova in round one of the Porsche Tennis Grand Prix. A tough task awaits the winner with top seed Aryna Sabalenka the scheduled opponent. Read our match prediction.

This is an indoor hard court tournament being played in Stuttgart, Germany. Tauson is having a successful 2025 and is the world number 21 but seventh in the WTA Live Race. The Dane has won 17 of her 23 matches with one hard court title won and another reached.

Now the 22-year-old turns her attention to clay and has a 66-29 career record on this surface. Last year saw her get to the last 16 at Roland Garros and round three in the previous year. This is her third match against Potapova. They are level at 1-1 but this is their first match on clay.

Anastasia Potapova is at 38th in the live rankings and seven places higher in the WTA Live Race. The Russian has lost three of her last four matches, all played on hard courts. Potapova also reached the fourth round at Roland Garros last year.

One WTA clay court tournament has been won by her, that was in Istanbul three years ago. We tip Tauson to win this match.
