Prediction published on 9/27/24, 9:45 AM  by Tyler Doty | Modified on 9/27/24 at 9:56 AM in Tennis Picks

36-year-old Frenchman Adrian Mannarino faces top 5 Russian Daniil Medvedev in the last 8 of the Beijing tournament. Adrian Mannarino suffered a series of defeats at the start of the season, and also at the start of the hard court season this summer, but he seems to have regained his form with another string of victories recently. After stopping Borna Coric in the first round of the US Open, the Frenchman was a quarter-finalist at the Challenger de Rennes, then a quarter-finalist at the Chengdu tournament, winning the second set of his match against world No.19 Lorenzo Musetti. His first-round win here over Lorenzo Sonego in a 3-set match should also give him hope of winning at least one set in this duel.

Daniil Medvedev, meanwhile, is the tournament's number 3 seed. He had no trouble concluding his first round in just 2 sets against Gaël Monfils, the Frenchman ranked 46th in the world, against whom he won for the 3rd time. A victory that will help the Russian get back on track after his two Laver Cup losses to Frances Tiafoe and Ben Shelton in 3-set matches. In early September, Daniil Medvedev made it 4 wins in a row at the US Open and was a quarter-finalist against the winner, Jannik Sinner, against whom he won the second set. Although he may be pushed around in this match against the Frenchman, he should have no trouble concluding their duel with a victory.
