The BNP Paribas Open enters the quarter-final stage on Thursday with the first of them pitting Daniil Medvedev against Arthur Fils. This match represents the second meeting between the two players and the winner will face Tallon Griekspoor or Holger Rune. Read on for our prediction.

For the second game at this event, Fils dropped a set as he dispatched Marcos Giron in the third round. Reaching the quarters means this is his best run this season, and he has already improved on last year’s third round exit here.

With this win Fils has compiled an 8-4 record and hopes to avoid a second defeat against Medvedev.

Russian number one Daniil Medvedev has had his painful moments at Indian Wells, which he hopes to address this season. The fifth seed lost in the last two final matches here and will hope to go all the way this time.

He already has the head-to-head advantage over Fills and will be a favorite to make the semis. Medvedev, seeking his 21st tour title, has never lost a quarter-final match at Indian Wells.

He comes into this clash having beaten Tommy Paul in straight sets in a match that lasted just 1.25 hours. Medvedev improved his tally to 11-5 for the season and has spent 2.5 hours less on the court compared to Fils.
