CORENTIN MOUTET VS TOMMY PAUL PREDICTION

USA’s Tommy Paul has shone across the singles tournament so far at the Paris 2024 Olympics and is yet to drop a set, most recently proving too good for youngster Luciano Darderi. Moutet didn’t play in the second round, having been handed a walk-over after German Jan-Lennard Struff withdrew from the competition.

However, the worry from Moutet’s point of view would be that he now lacks a level of match-sharpness having not played since Sunday, whilst Tommy Paul has been balancing with singles and doubles alongside fellow American Taylor Fritz. Even when taking this into account, Paul is well worth backing to beat Moutet, as he really is playing excellent Tennis right now and momentum can go a long way in a short and sharp high-pressure tournament such as this.
