Second seed Taylor Fritz will face off with countryman Sebastian Korda as he continues his quest for another title in Tokyo. They will battle in the quarter-finals to mark their fourth career meeting. Read on to find our prediction for this match.

Sebastian Korda is having quite the debut at the Japan Open and is now just three wins away from his first title of the year. The American, who earned a runner-up finish in Adelaide at the start of the year, defeated the qualifier Sho Shimabukuro in the last round.

Earning his 17th win of the campaign, Korda defeated the Japanese player in straight sets. With injuries disrupting his season, Korda will be seeking a strong end to the year. He has shot up 12 places to 62nd in the live ranking.

Taylor Fritz lost to Korda the last time they met. This was at last year’s campaign in Montreal, and he will be wary of the threat his countryman poses.

The world number five, a former Tokyo champion, has won his last four fixtures. He has continued with his strong Laver Cup form. Fritz defeated Nuno Borges in straight sets to move past the second round here for the first time since his title-winning campaign.

Now with 47 wins, the 27-year-old, who has won two titles this year, is on course to record 50-plus wins for a third straight season.
