Stefanos Tsitsipas vs Lorenzo Musetti prediction

Stefanos Tsitsipas at the 2022 Mutua Madrid Open. Both recorded their best results at a Grand Slam at last year's French Open, but one of them won't be able to do the same this time around. Tsitsipas has recorded some stellar results on the red dirt so far and Musetti has been quite consistent as well, even if he hasn't matched the Greek. The World No. 4 has a better serve, which will certainly help him in crucial moments against Musetti. Musetti's forehand is weaker than Tsitsipas' and his more inconsistent wing, which the Greek will target to elicit errors. Both players are quite comfortable on clay and as such, the surface won't offer an advantage to either. Tsitsipas incorporates more variety in his game compared to the Italian. He isn't afraid to approach the net frequently or mix it up with a well-timed drop shot. Tsitsipas' recent results have made him a title contender in Paris and despite facing a quality opponent early on, he's likely to start his campaign with a win. Pick: Tsitsipas to win in four sets.
