Arthur Rinderknech vs Brandon Nakashima prediction

This serves as the first time that Arthur Rinderknech and Brandon Nakashima will meet on an outdoor hard court surface with a place in the last eight at stake. Rinderknech benefitted from facing a clearly injured Frances Tiafoe in the last round, the latter not playing at full capacity before finally retiring hurt in the second set.

Nakashima showed grit and determination meanwhile as he came from a set down to defeat plucky qualifier Titouan Droguet in three. Whilst pushed to the limit, the American will have gained substantial momentum from such a win that could carry him through this next match. A quick start from Nakashima could see him hold onto the advantage and end up edging out Rinderknech.
