Lorenzo Musetti vs Jannik Sinner – Match Predictions
Contents
Jannik Sinner To Win
It is all coming to blows as we reach the quarter-finals. Jannik Sinner worked hard to get past Hubert Hurkacz and has a tougher assignment on his hands against compatriot Lorenzo Musetti. It was Lorenzo who made headlines in Monte Carlo with his 2-1 victory over world number 1 Novak Djokovic. Despite his heroics against the great Serb, it is difficult to see past Sinner who improved on his semi-final ousting in Indian Wells to a runner-up position in Miami. He is closing in on the semi-finals in Monte Carlo and should achieve that target to double his win column against Musetti.
2-0 to Jannik Sinner
Djokovic was rusty in his defeat to Musetti, allowing 14 breakpoints while also coming up with six double faults. The Serbian could only convert 7 of the 13 serve break opportunities, which tells more about him than Musetti’s brilliance. Sinner is in the zone and will not make similar mistakes. He did accrue the first set to Hurkacz but rallied to claim the game. As the game progressed Sinner became more lethal, breaking his rival’s thrive while being perfect on his serve. Expect him to continue from where he left off and earn a straight-sets victory over Musetti.
Lorenzo Musetti vs Jannik Sinner Preview
Our predictions for this match have now been established, let’s see how these players have fared so far in Monte Carlo Masters.
Lorenzo Musetti
In the absence of Rafael Nadal and Carlos Alcaraz, Novak Djokovic was supposed to cruise to the semi-finals where he would receive his first test. It did not pan out as the Serbian had hoped for. An inspired performance by Lorenzo Musetti saw Djokovic extend his search for a Monte Carlo Masters title into a ninth year. Musetti would rue that the match took such a toll on him as he had 14 opportunities to break his rival’s serve. More of the same will hinder his progress to the semi-finals and he needs to be on his best in the quarter-finals.
Jannik Sinner
It has been a good year for Jannik Sinner fans. The Italian ace is coming into his element, impressing whenever he puts his foot on the court. He made it to the fourth round of the Australian Open but could not get past Stefanos Tsitsipas. Sinner added silverware to his ranks at Montpellier and could have doubled his tally had he not met up with Daniil Medvedev in the Rotterdam Open final. He faced a similar fate in Miami while also losing out to Indian Wells champions Carlos Alcaraz in the Indian Wells semi-final.
Lorenzo Musetti vs Jannik Sinner Head to Head
The last time Musetti met Sinner was back in October 2021 at ATP Antwerp. It was a comfortable win for the Sinner, who overcame his compatriot in straight sets.
