Stefanos Tsitsipas is a better player than his opponent, Casper Ruud on hard courts. Ruud’s game is more suited to clay courts, however, the youngster is improvising his game on all surfaces. Stefanos Tsitsipas is the favorite to win the quarterfinals, but he should expect some stiff competition from the world number 12.

Match Prediction: Stefanos Tsitsipas to win in three sets
