Moise Kouame vs Alexandre Muller prediction

Moise Kouame will meet Alexandre Muller in a generational tussle of Frenchmen in Chengdu.

The 17-year-old continues to climb the rankings after making headlines and enjoying a brief spell in the spotlight with a couple of wins at the French Open earlier this year.

Muller, 29, only has one more main-draw victory in 2026 than his teenage compatriot and he has plummeted outside the top 100 as a result.

This is a big opportunity for both players with Muller desperate to gain some semblance of form, while Kouame’s hopes to push ever closer to the top 100 by the end of the current campaign would be buoyed by a run here.

Bragging rights will also be on the line and with that also in mind, Kouame may play with more freedom and is probably a good shout for the rankings upset.
