The quarterfinal of the Miami Open will host Daniil Medvedev and Nicolas Jarry. Miami has been home to the best tennis stars in the last week, and the pool has been reduced even further to pit the two players. Both have shown complete dominance over their opponents and will now look to overcome each other in the quarterfinal.

Jarry is currently in his best Miami Open run. He had not surpassed round 2 before the current season. Medvedev, on the other hand, is on a title defence run and will be focusing on defeating the Chilean.

Nicolas Jarry vs Daniil Medvedev: Preview

Jarry began 2024 by reaching the quarterfinal of the Adelaide International and lost to Jiri Lehecka. The Australian Open would see him exit in the opening round after a gruelling five-set clash against Flavio Cobolli. Argentina would fare better for him as he even beat Carlos Alcaraz in the semifinal, but unfortunately, he lost in the final. In Rio, he lost in the first round and then lost to Corentin Moutet in the quarterfinal of the Chile Open. 

The Indian Wells Masters would again throw him out in the first round in three sets against Fábián Marozsán. In Miami, Jarry managed to beat Jack Draper in the second round, followed by a crowd-rousing win in the second round against Thiago Seyboth Wild. He then beat Casper Ruud in the fourth round in straight sets, to set up a clash against Medvedev.

Medvedev began 2024 with four gruelling five-set clashes in the Australian Open. First, it was against Emil Ruusuvuori in the first round, then against Hubert Hurkacz in the quarterfinal. The third five-set clash was an astonishing comeback against Alexander Zverev. He lost to Jannik Sinner in the final, who achieved a similar comeback against him.  

He followed with a stint in Dubai, where he ran to the semifinal to lose to Ugo Humbert. He managed to run to the final of the Indian Wells, where he beat Grigor Dimitrov, Holger Rune and Tommy Paul in the final stages but lost to Alcaraz in the final. In Miami, Medvedev achieved a breadstick against Casper Norrie and a bagel against Dominik Koepfer and will now aim to end Jarry’s run.

Jarry vs Medvedev: Head-to-Head

Jarry and Medvedev have battled against each other once on the ATP Tour. Their match took place in the 2019 Barcelona Open, where Medvedev emerged as the victor. Although the Russian player won the match, Jarry would not go down without a fight. The clash ended with a score of 6-3, 6-4, which launched Meddy to the final. 

Prediction: Meddy to end the hopes of Jarry

Medvedev and Jarry will face off for the second time in their careers. In this match, Medvedev has the surface edge over Jarry, who likes clay. The fourth-ranked Russian enjoys reasonably fast, low-bouncing conditions. Jarry has not had much success on hard courts throughout his career. However, given the size of the Chilean crowd, he must be enjoying Miami.

Jarry is playing well, but Medvedev, who loves to stand far behind the baseline, will return his serves and likely end his hopes of a deeper run.
