Mirra Andreeva to Face Sister Erika in Stuttgart Open 2025

Mirra Andreeva Takes on Sister Erika in Stuttgart Open 2025 First Round

The 2025 Stuttgart Open serves up a rare sibling showdown as Mirra Andreeva faces older sister Erika Andreeva for a spot in the round of 16. The all-Russian clash adds a personal twist to the tournament’s opening round.

Mirra in Red-Hot Form, Erika Enters as Lucky Loser

17-year-old Mirra enters the match riding high after back-to-back title wins in Dubai and Indian Wells. Though she faced a minor setback at the Miami Open, where she lost to Amanda Anisimova, Mirra's overall form in 2025 has been exceptional with a 20-4 win-loss record this year.

Erika, on the other hand, was initially out of the main draw after falling in the second round of qualifiers. But she found her way back in as a lucky loser, replacing Marta Kostyuk, who withdrew due to injury. Erika has struggled this season, with a 4-9 win-loss record and a steep drop in the WTA rankings.

Head-to-Head: Erika Leads 1-0

This will be the second professional match between the sisters. Erika holds the edge with a 1-0 lead, having defeated Mirra at the 2024 Wuhan Open in straight sets (6-3, 6-1).

That match saw Erika dominate with five service breaks and a higher first serve win percentage (63% vs 45%). Despite Mirra having a better serve percentage overall, Erika’s aggressive play gave her the edge.

However, much has changed since then, and Mirra’s growth over the last year may tip the scales this time.
