THE PREDICTION

18-year-old Arthur Fils was not granted the opportunity to avenge his defeat to Jannik Sinner in the semi-finals of the Montpellier Open two weeks ago but he received a walkover to the Marseille quarter-finals after the Italian was forced to withdraw from the tournament. The teenager is quickly becoming France’s new hope after recent wins over Roberto Bautista Agut and former prodigy Richard Gasquet but facing Stan Wawrinka for the first time will be his most difficult test yet. Former world number three Wawrinka is enjoying himself on court again right now after years of gut-wrenching injury setbacks and he came back from a set down to beat fellow veteran Gasquet on Wednesday to make the quarter-finals in successive weeks on tour. Both of the Swiss’ matches this week have seen three sets and the Marseille crowd will do their utmost to support their young underdog here despite a huge admiration for the three-time Grand Slam champion facing him. Back Wawrinka to earn at least a set as the likelier of two capable semi-finalists and leave the victor up to chance.
