Moise Kouame vs Lorenzo Musetti prediction

Moise Kouame picked up his first tour-level win since Roland Garros after impressively beating Lorenzo Sonego in straight sets. The exciting teenager saved all five break point opportunities that he conceded, winning 7-6 (2) 6-4 after one hour and 51 minutes. He now takes on another Italian in Lorenzo Musetti.

The two-time major semi-finalist comfortably got past Matteo Arnaldi in his opening match. The 24-year-old was always in control, winning 6-1 6-4. That extended his winning record against Arnaldi to a commanding 5-0. Musetti is aiming for a strong end to the campaign after an injury-hit 2026 for the most part. 

Kouame’s aggressive groundstrokes and confidence after beating Sonego make him a dangerous opponent, particularly with home support on his side. However, Musetti possesses greater variety, superior defensive skills and considerably more experience on the ATP Tour. His ability to change pace and disrupt rhythm could prove especially effective against the teenager.
