LORENZO MUSETTI VS ADRIAN MANNARINO PREDICTION
Lorenzo Musetti is the top seed in Chengdu this week and the Italian got through his first match against Christopher O’Connell in three sets. He lost the opening set on a tiebreak and then grafted his way through a tight second and third set to make it to the quarters.
He now faces veteran Frenchman Adrian Mannarino who has had to win two three-setters to get to this point. He edged past compatriot Terence Atmane first up and then beat China’s Zhou Yi but this test represents a major step up in quality.
Musetti has played Mannarino once before and it was the Frenchman who won 6-4 6-4. He is a much improved player since that clash back in 2023 at Indian Wells and we expect the talented Italian to avenge that loss and win here.
