Tomas Martin Etcheverry bids to reach his first ever Rio Open quarter-final. To do so, the eighth seed must get past qualifier Vilius Gaubas. Etcheverry is the only seed remaining in the bottom half of this outdoor clay court tournament. Time for our match prediction.
In the last eight, the winner here will be up against either unseeded Damir Dzumhur or qualifier Jaume Faria.
Before this year, Etcheverry had only won one of three matches played in this tournament. Another early exit looked possible as he went a set down to Francisco Comesana but rallied to win the next two.
Seven of his 11 matches played this year have been won. Last week saw him get to the last four in Buenos Aires.
Viilius Gaubas had to win two qualifying matches to reach the main draw. Both were won in straight sets but he lost the middle set in his round one victory over Luis Guto Miguel. He's now a career-high 105th in the live rankings, 55 places below his opponent.
He's won eight of his 11 matches played in 2026 with one semi-final reached on the Challenger Tour but on a hard court. Gaubas is playing in his first ATP Tour main draw of the year. We tip Etcheverry to win in straight sets.
