Rublev will now try to break his Majors quarterfinal jinx, having lost at this level eight times in a row. Medvedev was also responsible for two of their defeats, one of which occurred at the 2020 US Open.

Medvedev is unconcerned with Rublev’s serve and forehand. The former World No. 1 counters the advantage of big servers by returning the ball from well behind the baseline.It is unlikely that his compatriot would be able to defeat Medvedev.

Match Prediction: Daniil Medvedev to win in four sets.
