Playing for a place in the semi-finals, Alexandre Muller will take on Alejandro Davidovich Fokina on Sunday, in a battle betwee France and Spain. On rankings, the Spaniard should be the one who advances, but he's played very little tennis of late, while Muller is in hot form right now, so this is far from a foregone conclusion.
At odds of -125, it's well worth betting on Alexandre Muller to, at the very least, avoid going down in straight sets. Not only is the French player competing well right now, winning all four of his matches in Chengdu in straight sets, but he's up against a player who has played very little hard-court tennis of late, with his Spanish opponent playing just one match since returning from a two-month absence.

Our Alexandre Muller vs Alejandro Davidovich Fokina Prediction
The early market suggest that Alejandro Davidovich Fokina should make light work of this, and if both players played as their ranking suggests, then sure, the Spaniard would come out on top. However, it's not always that simple.
Davidovich Fokina is no stranger to faltering in matches of this nature, while he has played much less hard-court tennis than Alexandre Muller of late, and that simply tips the balance back towards the French player, who has shown enough over the last week or so to suggest that he has a better chance of competing here than the early odds suggest.
