Daniil Medvedev vs Arthur Fils Prediction: Daniil will get a very confident victory

World No. 3 Daniil Medvedev will face Frenchman Arthur Fils, No. 38 of the ATP ranking, in the round of 32 at the Vienna Tennis Tournament. The guys have not crossed paths with each other on the Tour, and bookmakers believe that Daniil will get a very confident victory on Wednesday.

Daniil Medvedev

For Medvedev, the tournament in Vienna will be the first tournament in this part of the season. Before Austria, the world No. 3 played two events in China and reached the final in Beijing, where he lost in two sets on two tie-breaks to Italian Jannick Sinner. But at the Shanghai Masters, Daniel crashed out in the round of 32 at an early stage, losing to American Korda in two sets. We should note two interesting facts. Firstly, Medvedev will not be able to compete with Djokovic and Alcaraz for the first two spots in the rankings in the near future, at least not until the World Tour Finals. Secondly, we will see Daniil at the World Tour Finals, as the Russian has long since broken the 4,375-point barrier.

Arthur Fils

The young Frenchman showed himself well in Antwerp, Belgium. Arthur reached the final, losing to Kazakhstan's Bublik 4:6, 4:6 in two games. The good result led to Fils to 38th place in the ATP ranking. During the Belgian tournament, Fils knocked out Estonia's Lajal, Peru's Varillas, and Greece's Tsitsipas, all of whom Fils beat in two games. Before the Indoors in Antwerp, Arthur played three matches at the Shanghai Masters.

Expert Betting Tips

For Medvedev, the tournament in Vienna will be the first Indoors in the fall part of the season, and it is still unclear how the world No. 3 will be able to prove himself on indoor courts. Daniil played well in Beijing despite losing in the final, but he failed in Shanghai. On the other hand, Phils have practiced playing Indoors, which is very good. Last week, the Frenchman reached the final of the tournament in Antwerp. There is a sense of underestimation of Fils; we doubt that the Frenchman will beat Daniil as he beat Tsitsipas in Belgium, but Arthur will give Medvedev a fight. We bet on a long match and Daniil's victory in three games.
