THE PREDICTION
Both Lorenzo Musetti and Juan Pablo Varillas come into Wimbledon at career-high ATP world rankings of 15th and 60th, respectively, after their excellent recent runs to the round of 16 at Roland-Garros. 21-year-old Musetti made the last 16 in Paris for the second time in three seasons before something of a capitulation against Carlos Alcaraz whilst Varillas stunned both Roberto Bautista Agut and Hubert Hurkacz in five sets before defeat to eventual champion Novak Djokovic. The 27-year-old has not played since that defeat to Djokovic, opting to rest after the biggest tournament of his career rather than struggle across the unfamiliar grass swing, whilst Musetti impressed on the surface with back-to-back quarter-finals reached in Stuttgart and Queen’s. Back Musetti to win outright here with practice in these conditions in his legs. Varillas had never seen a Grand Slam match settled in fewer than five sets until facing Djokovic in Paris and it is likely that that particular bubble has been burst now.
