Arthur Fils vs Emilio Nava prediction

Arthur Fils survived a scare to edge past Ignacio Buse in Madrid.

The in-form Frenchman dropped the opening set and never had it easy as he eventually prevailed 6-7 7-6 7-5 at the expense of the Peruvian.

Next up, the 21st seed will tackle Emilio Nava after the world number 116 notched up a surprise 6-7 7-6 6-3 victory over 14th seed Valentin Vacherot.

It all depends on how fresh Fils is feeling given the amount of tennis he has been playing recently, but he’s coming up clutch when it matters and with that forehand fizzing, he should have enough to see off the American.
