Prediction published on 15/11/2026, 13:45  by Steve Ashfield | Modified on 15/11/2026 at 14:42 in Tennis Predictions

2020 champion Daniil Medvedev will face Flavio Cobolli in his opening match. This is in the Ivan Lendl group which also includes Carlos Alcaraz and Frances Tiafoe. Medvedev leads his opponent 2-1 in previous meetings and has won four titles this year. Our prediction is Medvedev wins in straight sets.

Both players have had mixed results in recent tournaments. This is an indoor hard court tournament being played in Turin, so Flavio Cobolli will have the home supporters on his side. Cobolli may need that help as he's only won three of his eight indoor hard court matches played this year. Between 2020 and 2026, only once has he won more matches on this surface than he's lost.

His best run came in Lyon where he reached the semi-finals.

This is the first match that these two players have had on this surface.

Of Medvedev's four titles this year, one was a recent triumph in the indoor hard court tournament played in Almaty. He has won seven of his ten matches played on this surface in 2026.

His last two indoor hard court matches have both been lost. He was beaten by Carlos Alcaraz in the Vienna semi-final, then lost to Ignacio Buse in Paris.
