Blanch enters the quarter-finals having won four of his last five matches on clay in Tunis, though he's ranked 369th and has no head-to-head history with Clarke. He dropped a set to Kuzmanov in his most recent loss but showed consistent form against Ouden, Zhou, Vrbensky, and Klok.

Clarke, ranked 207th, arrives as the betting favourite with four wins in his last five matches including victories over Basavareddy and Arnaboldi. The British player has no prior meetings with Blanch and showed resilience with a three-set loss to Seggerman his only recent blemish.
