Matteo Berrettini reached his seventh Grand Slam quarterfinal and his second at the French Open. Berrettini avenged Jannik Sinner’s loss by taking out his compatriot’s conqueror, Juan Manuel Cerundolo, in the fourth round. The match took 35 games to decide. Berrettini prevailed 6-3, 7-6, 7-6 in two and a half hours of play. He was 5-3 down in the third set and saved three set points in the tiebreak to win the match in straight sets.

Before this round, Berrettini beat Fucsovics, Rinderknech and Comesana, with two of his matches stretching past three sets. Berrettini last made the quarterfinal at Roland Garros in 2021 and hasn’t played the event since until this year.

Matteo Arnaldi reached his first Grand Slam quarterfinal at the 2026 French Open with a marathon five-set win over American Frances Tiafoe. Arnaldi trailed by two sets to one, but won a 67-minute fourth set in a tiebreak, having trailed 5-3 at one point, although Tiafoe failed to serve for the match. He eventually sealed the fifth set 6-4 with a late break.

Berrettini and Arnaldi have never faced off, so this will be their first meeting.

Matteo Berrettini vs Matteo Arnaldi Prediction

We are guaranteed an Italian name in the semifinals of Roland Garros and the obvious shock is that it will not be Jannik Sinner. For Berrettini, this is his seventh major quarterfinal, and he’s a man with a wealth of experience at this stage. By contrast, Arnaldi will be playing his first and he’s coming off back-to-back five-setters that would have drained his energy tank at this point. I’m happy to back Berrettini to win in at least four sets.
