Enrico Dalla Valle and Matej Dodig meet in the quarterfinal at Genova on Friday. Matej Dodig has won 5 in a row and 8 of the last 10 overall. Enrico Dalla Valle is 5-5 across recent matches.

Dodig's 69.9% behind the first serve (against 65.3% for Valle) means break chances should be scarce in one direction. Valle arrives with very little recovery time. The edge belongs to Dodig — real, but not the kind you take for granted at this level.
