Andrey Rublev vs Emilio Nava: Prediction for the Match on July 18, 2025

The ATP 250 Los Cabos Open hosts an exciting quarterfinal match. The top seed Andrey Rublev faces an American underdog Emilio Nava. Rublev, ranked No. 10 in the world, comes in on a dominant season and a fine start in Mexico. Nava, having reached the quarters after his straight-sets win over Aleksandar Vukic, is unfamiliar with this territory, but he has momentum. This contest has value in betting alongside intrigue with Rublev expecting a routine path to the semis and Nava instead trying to shake up the draw.

The storyline has Rublev back into the ATP Top 10 list, and with this matchup, significant hard-court credentials enter the fray. Starting the year off right, he claimed a title in Doha and last week met his match in the Hamburg final. In Los Cabos, Rublev looked focused from jump street and breezed past Alex Hernandez 6–3, 6–2 in 68 minutes. He has a winning percentage on hard courts of 66% in 2025, with stellar serving numbers, including winning 82% of points on the first serve in his opener. Rublev appears mentally fresh after the match with an interview hinting at an aggressive plan with fewer errors being the main objectives. Historically, the top seeds go deep into Los Cabos, hence making Rublev her favorite so far unless Nava goes into her disruptive rhythm.

In an upset against Aleksandar Vukic, Nava, a player with a ranking of 123 ATP at present, claimed a quarterfinal berth with a 7–6(6), 6–3 result. The 23-year-old American seized a wildcard available following Borna Coric's withdrawal, and he has made every bit of the opportunity count. Nava aced nine times, saving every single break point in the contest versus Vukic, thus remaining calm when it mattered most. Although inconsistent for most of the season, he has now started to find a groove of sorts on hard courts, especially after three Challenger titles in 2025. Social media has been buzzing about his improved footwork from the rear of the court and sharp timing this week. Yet, never before has he gone toe-to-toe fighting at the top with a top-10 player. That is steep on a big stage. He is going to have to double his output if he wants to trouble Rublev in lengthy rallies.

This will be the first ATP meeting between Rublev and Nava. With no prior encounters, early match momentum and tactical adjustments will be decisive.

  • Rublev has a 66% win rate on hard courts in 2025.
  • Nava saved 100% of break points vs Vukic (3/3).
  • Rublev has lost just five games in Los Cabos so far.
  • Nava’s Los Cabos wins feature strong first-serve numbers (~70%).
  • Los Cabos top seeds have reached the semis in 4 of the last 5 years.

Rublev enters with far more experience and sharper form. Nava’s win over Vukic was steady but not explosive—he will face relentless pressure from Rublev’s baseline consistency.
