Sixth seed Andrey Rublev takes on the ninth-seeded Grigor Dimitrov in round four of the US Open. Rublev has a great record against Dimitrov on outdoor hard courts, can he win again? Here's our match prediction.

The sixth seed has won four of his seven previous matches against Dimitrov. However, all four of his wins have come on outdoor hard courts and Dimitrov is yet to beat him on this surface. A fifth win will take the Russian into his 11th Grand Slam quarter-final.

If Rublev can win this match, he will be in his third successive quarter-final in New York and fifth overall. However, as with all his Grand Slam quarter-final appearances, he hasn't won any of them.

He has been in good form of late with two last eight appearances and a run to the final in Cincinnati. That good form has continued in New York though he had to make a comeback against Arthur Rinderknech in round two.

He lost the first two sets in that match but fought back brilliantly to win the next three sets for the loss of five games. His most recent match saw him beat 32nd seed Jiri Lehecka in straight sets.

Each of Dimitrov's three wins have come without dropping a set. In the last round he beat unseededTallon Griekspoor for the loss of seven  games.Dimitrov is in the fourth round of this Grand Slam for only the third time.

His best performance was when reaching the last four in 2019. We tip Andrey Rublev to get the win in this match.
