Rinderknech lost the first set against Hamad Medjedovic in the first round but still advanced further after his opponent retired at the start of the second set.

Felix Auger-Aliassime vs Arthur Rinderknech prediction
Rinderknech has been on a giant-killing spree in Shanghai, taking down a seeded player for the third match in a row. He didn't even face a break point against Lehecka in the previous round to reach his maiden Masters 1000 quarterfinal. He also has another reason to celebrate, with his cousin Valentin Vacherot also making the last eight here.
Auger-Aliassime has been equally impressive in Shanghai. He hasn't lost a set during the tournament, and has dropped his serve just once across his three matches here so far. He erased all three break points that he faced against Musetti. He will be the favorite to continue his good run of form given his winning record against Rinderknech.
Both of their previous encounters happened this year. Auger-Aliassime won their first meeting in Mallorca in straight sets, and was on course for another win in Cincinnati when Rinderknech threw in the towel. While the Frenchman is playing some of the best tennis of his career, Auger-Aliassime's recent resurgence, record in this rivalry, and prior experience at this stage should give him the upper hand in this contest.
Pick: Felix Auger-Aliassime to win in straight sets.
