THE PREDICTION

This should be a thrilling first encounter between two youngsters set to face-off plenty of times at the top of the sport in coming seasons, particularly on clay. World number 24 Lorenzo Musetti laboured through the hardcourt swing, late last year and at the start of 2024, before an impressive run to the last 16 at the Miami Open but he proved his credentials in these conditions with a big upset over 13th seed Taylor Fritz on Sunday. The Italian upset Novak Djokovic here last season before a tough exit to Jannik Sinner in the quarter-finals and he looks the favourite in this likely thriller against 19-year-old Arthur Fils, who beat lucky loser Yannick Hanfmann handily on Monday. World number 36 Fils grabbed his maiden ATP title at the Lyon Open last May, on French clay, and he will be backed well as the home-from-home favourite here in Monaco. Musetti, however, should need top 20 opposition to oust him on his favoured surface after a performance like Monday’s/ Back the Italian to win outright.

TIP: LORENZO MUSETTI TO WIN
