The American entered Paris after a second-round exit in Hamburg. He started his campaign by cruising past Roman Safiullin, Pablo Carreno Busta and Sebastian Korda in the initial few rounds before making light work of Daniel Altmaier in the fourth. Tiafoe defeated the German Altmaier in straight sets, 6-3, 6-4, 7-6(4).

Frances Tiafoe vs Lorenzo Musetti prediction

Frances Tiafoe has silenced his critics with a quarterfinal run at the French Open. He struggled to get past the third round in the last few years but is now two wins away from entering the final. The American is known for his steady all-around game and top-spin-heavy forehand.

Musetti, meanwhile, has been in sublime form in the last two months. He will feel gutted to miss out in Rome and Madrid and would hope to learn from his mistakes in Paris. The Italian has a solid all-around game with great court coverage skills on clay.

Ad

Considering their record in Paris and results on tour, Musetti will be a slight favorite to win. Tiafoe is capable of causing an upset in this bout, but the American will need to play out of his skin. He might present a stern challenge to Musetti on Tuesday but eventually come up shy in the quarterfinals.

Pick: Musetti to win in four sets.
