The day after his victory against Brandon Nakashima in straight sets, Arthur Fils challenges Lorenzo Musetti in the quarter-final of the ATP 500 in Barcelona. Winner of his compatriot Térence Atmane for his entry into the running, the Frenchman eliminated the 30th in the world in the second round (6-2, 6-3) in 1h14. He now finds the Italian, who remains on a victory against Corentin Moutet, also in two sets.
At what time and on which TV channel to see Arthur Fils – Lorenzo Musetti
The match will be broadcast on Eurosport on Friday April 17, 2026, from 4 p.m.
Arthur Fils is gaining momentum
Despite some slumps during the first two matches, Arthur Fils seems to be gaining ground on clay. He is preparing to play the quarter-finals in Barcelona for the third consecutive year. He only faced Musetti twice (1-1, victory for the Frenchman at Indian Wells 2025 and the Italian at Monte-Carlo 2024). His fifth quarter-final of 2026 promises to be a spectacle, against the number 2 seed.
Musetti is coming back well
Little by little, the Italian seems to be returning to his best level after his injury in the round of 16 of the Australian Open against Novak Djokovic. He has still not lost a single set in Catalonia (6-3, 6-4 against Corentin Moutet in the 2nd round and 7-5, 6-2 against Martin Landaluce in the 1st round).
