Felix Auger-Aliassime continues to build his form on hardcourts as he reaches his second consecutive quarter-final having reached the semi-finals in Los Cabos last week losing to defending champion Cameron Norrie. Felix avenged his defeat this week defeating the Brit 6-3, 6-4 to enter the last-8. Ruud had earlier defeated Yoshihito Nishioka in straight-sets and is yet to drop a set this week.

Casper Ruud returns to hardcourt for the first time since March. He last played in Gstaad defeating Matteo Berrettini in the finals. Ruud defeated Alex Molcan in the second round in straight-sets but had to go the distance with Roberto Bautista Agut before clinching the match 6-7(4), 7-6(4), 6-4 to advance into the quarter-finals. Ruud had to miss the Australian Leg of the Tour due to injury but had managed to reach the finals of the 2022 Miami Masters proving his worth on the surface.

This will be the third Tour level meeting between the two with one win a piece for both of them. They last met in the 2021 season and are currently tied at 1-1 in the head-to-head.

Casper has a career hardcourt record of 65-44 while being 10-3 on the surface this year and having a 37-13 season record coming into the match. Felix is 85-57 on hardcourts across his career and has an 11-6 record for the season on the surface while being 34-18 for the season across all surfaces. Looking at these numbers and their recent form, the match seems to be headed to a close finish where Felix might just be the first one to cross the line owing to great home support and better adaptability to hardcourts as compared to Ruud.

Prediction: Felix Auger-Aliassime to win in three sets.
