Arthur Fils is unbeaten on clay this year and has already won the Barcelona Open. The 21st seed is up against unseeded Emilio Nava in round three of the Mutua Madrid Open. Can Fils reach round four? Read our match prediction below.
Before this year Arthur FIls had lost his last three matches in Madrid and never made it past round two. He finally got a win this week when defeating Ignacio Buse but did need three sets to clinch the victory.
That made it six wins out of six for the Frenchman this season. He didn't make his return from injury until February but in six tournaments this year, he has made it to at least the quarter-finals. He's 23rd in the live rankings but sixth in the ATP Race.
Emilio Nava has won ten of his 17 clay court matches this year. One ATP Tour quarter-final in Santiago has been reached and another last eight appearance on the Challenger Tour in Sao Paulo.
He has blown hot and cold though with four first round losses in ATP clay court tournaments this year and another defeat in qualifying. He's beaten Jenson Brooksby and Valentin Vacherot so far this week and is 105th in the live rankings.
We tip Fils to win in straight sets.
