Daniil Medvedev vs Arthur Fils prediction, betting tips & odds, head-to-head, preview: Indian Wells Open 2025

Medvedev is a two-time finalist at Indian Wells Open.
Daniil Medvedev registered his biggest and most impressive win of the season against 10th seed Tommy Paul to advance to another quarter-final at the Indian Wells Open. The Russian displayed a dominant performance, claiming the first four sets, conceding the next four, and ultimately winning all the last eight games consecutively.
The former US Open champion clearly loves playing at the Tennis Paradise, boasting a phenomenal record and having reached the finals at this venue twice, in a row. Much like the Russian, World No. #21 Arthur Fils entered the ATP-1000 event on the back of poor form but turned things around at the desert where he won three straight matches for the first time this season.

Preview
A second-round exit at Australian Open at the hands of a qualifier, a second-round defeat at ATP Rotterdam, semi-final loss at Open 13, and consecutive quarter-final appearances in Qatar and Dubai were Medvedev’s numbers ahead of the Indian Wells Open 2025. While they may not appear that bad, the Russian hasn’t won a title since US Open 2023.
Moreover, all these defeats came against lower-ranked players, but his showing so far in California has been superb. Triumphing over previous edition’s semi-finalist Tommy Paul underscores a potential return to form for the for the 29-year-old Russian.
Arthur Fils, on the other hand, stunned Wimbledon semi-finalist and Olympic bronze medalist Lorenzo Musetti in the second round, and then downed Marcos Giron in a rain-interrupted clash. The Frenchman has played the former World No. #1 just once so far in 2023 at Vienna, which Medvedev won comfortably in straight sets.
