Alejandro Davidovich Fokina vs Valentin Vacherot prediction
Alejandro Davidovich Fokina picked up his first win of the new season after getting past Rinky Hijikata in straight sets to make the quarter-finals. The Spanaird encountered some problems on serve, but was very competitive in Hijikata’s service games, creating 11 break point opportunities overall as he won 6-2 6-3 after one hour and 23 minutes.
Valentin Vacherot was handed a walkover after Thanasi Kokkinkais withdrew from the tournament before their match took place. The Monegasque, who won the Shanghai Masters as a qualifier towards the end of last season, defeated two-time finalist Sebastian Korda in his first-round match.
They have played on one previous occasion, with Davidovich Fokina coming from a set down to beat Vacherot in the first-round of the French Open in 2024. Vacherot will be fresh after having a whole day to prepare, and he could trouble Davidovich Fokina if his first serve and attacking shots are working well. However, Davidovich Fokina’s ability to stay steady and consistent from the baseline, along with his experience, gives him the advantage.
