Daniil Medvedev vs Learner Tien prediction
Medvedev has recovered well after his frustrating loss in the US Open this year. The Russian tried to keep the points short, which seems to be working in his favour. He put up a flawless performance against Davidovich Fokina and will be eager to maintain that level in Shanghai.
Tien, on the other hand, continued his rich vein of form this week. Despite trailing against Moutet and Kecmanovic, the American showed his hunger by outlasting both players in Shanghai. He's defeated Medvedev twice this year and will have a psychological edge entering the fourth round on Wednesday.
Medvedev will be desperate to lay a glove on Tien during their third meeting this year. He's yet to drop a set this week and should be able to enter the last eight in Shanghai.
Pick: Medvedev to win in straight sets.
