Daniil Medvedev vs Stefanos Tsitsipas - Preview & Prediction - 2026 ATP Shanghai Open
Tuesday, 13 October, 2026
Daniil Medvedev vs Stefanos Tsitsipas — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for their FOURTH ROUND clash at the 2026 Rolex Shanghai Masters. One of the most-played rivalries in the modern game, in a draw that has blown wide open.Daniil Medvedev is the fifth seed and he has been ruthlessly efficient this week, dismantling Dalibor Svrcina 6-2, 6-3 in just ONE HOUR AND 14 MINUTES while breaking serve FIVE TIMES. Shanghai and these conditions have always suited his game, and with second seed Carlos Alcaraz already gone — upset 7-5, 7-6(4) by World No. 39 Zizou Bergs — the path through this half has opened up considerably.Stefanos Tsitsipas is in the middle of the most encouraging stretch he's had in nearly two years. The former World No. 3 slipped outside the top 75 by May after 18 months of struggle, split with his father as coach in late June and brought in Thomas Perrin from the Mouratoglou academy. Since then the signs have been real: at the US Open he took out Cincinnati champion Arthur Fils 4-6, 7-6(3), 6-1, 6-4 despite being 0-5 in the head-to-head, then beat No. 18 seed Jiri Lehecka to reach his FIRST US Open fourth round in NINE main-draw appearances, before losing to Ben Shelton.The head-to-head belongs to Medvedev — he leads 10-5, and 6-2 on hard courts. But Tsitsipas won their most recent meeting 6-3, 6-4 in Doha in February this year, and he beat Medvedev in Shanghai in 2024. He knows how to win this matchup.Medvedev is the favourite. But a resurgent Tsitsipas with recent form in the rivalry, in a draw missing Alcaraz, is exactly the kind of live underdog worth taking seriously.🎾 IN THIS VIDEO- How this rivalry has historically played out- What Tsitsipas has changed since June- The opportunity created by Alcaraz's early exit- Prediction and predicted scoreline📊 MATCH INFOTournament: 2026 Rolex Shanghai Masters (ATP Masters 1000)Round: Fourth Round / Round of 16 — SinglesPlayers: Daniil Medvedev (5th seed) vs Stefanos TsitsipasHead-to-head: Medvedev leads 10-5 (6-2 on hard courts)Last meeting: Tsitsipas won 6-3, 6-4 — Doha, February 2026Date: Wednesday, October 14, 2026Surface: HardVenue: Qizhong Forest Sports City Arena, Shanghai💬 Medvedev or Tsitsipas?
