Arthur Fils vs Frances Tiafoe Prediction

Arthur Fils, the exciting 20-year-old Frenchman was able to conserve some energy in the second round after opponent Gabriel Diallo returned hurt in the second set with Fils leading. Small margins can prove important when there’s little to separate a pair of players, as is the case with these two. Fils has youthful energy on his side and also form.

Frances Tiafoe hasn’t had a great time of it so far in 2025. The American is struggling to gain any form of his own and will be hoping his victories so far in Miami can be used as a springboard moving forwards. But he faces a dynamic opponent here who could frustrate Tiafoe and force him into making errors.

Either way, an intriguing battle lies ahead and the pendulum could swing both ways over the course of the contest. With that in mind, seriously consider backing over 2.5 sets with the overall outcome capable of going either way.

Arthur Fils vs Frances Tiafoe Tip: Over 2.5 sets
