Valentin Vacherot vs Arthur Fils prediction

Arthur Fils moved level with Jannik Sinner for most top-ten wins in 2026 courtesy of a straight-sets success over France’s Tiafoe.

The Frenchman claimed a 6-3 7-5 victory over the second seed to seal a last-eight tussle with Valentin Vacherot.

The Monegasque eighth seed hit the comeback trail to see off Stefanos Tsitsipas 4-6 7-6 6-4. This should be a similarly big-hitting affair, particularly as the first meeting between Vacherot and Fils was also close with Arthur prevailing 6-4 6-7 6-4 in Miami earlier this year.

This may well go three again although we do feel Arthur will have the edge overall.
