Landaluce Faces Medvedev in ATP Rome 2026 Quarterfinals. In the ATP Rome 2026 quarterfinals, Spain’s Landaluce will take on Medvedev. The match is scheduled for May 14 on Campo Centrale and will be broadcast on Movistar+ and TennisTV. The young player hopes for a breakthrough against his experienced opponent.

In the quarterfinals of the ATP Rome 2026 tournament, Spanish tennis player Martín Landaluce will face one of the event's main favorites — Daniil Medvedev. The match is scheduled for May 14 and will open the evening session on the central court of Foro Italico. The start time is 19:00 Madrid time (18:00 in the Canary Islands). For Landaluce, this is his second time reaching the quarterfinals at this level of tournament, and this time he will go up against the defending champion and one of the most consistent players of the season.

Medvedev is showing confident play on clay and is considered a clear contender for the semifinals. Nevertheless, Landaluce is open about his ambitions and intends to seize his chance at this European tournament, which is a home event for the Spanish. Attention to the match is heightened by the fact that for the young Spaniard, this is an opportunity to secure his place among the best at major competitions, where the competition is traditionally intense.

The match will be broadcast on Movistar+ and TennisTV for subscribers of these platforms. Additionally, the match can be watched live through the Bet365 service — registration and a minimum deposit of 5 euros are required. Once the account is activated, the broadcast will be available without the need to place bets, and you can follow the game from any device by selecting the 'Live' section.

The tournament organizers note that the Landaluce vs. Medvedev match will be the first in Thursday's evening program and is expected to attract great interest both from fans in the stands and viewers across Spain. Last year, similar quarterfinal encounters in Rome drew record audiences, and Spanish players traditionally enjoy strong support from the local crowd. In this context, it's worth recalling that recently in Rome, Spaniard Rafael Khodar also advanced to the quarterfinals against Italian Luciano Darderi — you can read more about this clash in the article on Khodar and Darderi's battle for a top-30 spot.

For reference: ATP Rome (officially Internazionali BNL d’Italia) is one of the largest clay tournaments of the season, part of the Masters 1000 series. In 2026, the event is held at Foro Italico courts from May 4 to 18. The winner receives not only significant ranking points but also a substantial prize fund. In recent years, Spanish tennis players have regularly reached the later stages, highlighting the country's strong training standards.
