Khachanov Coming off Zhuhai Title
It hasn’t taken Khachanov too long to get back to near-best having returned to competitive tennis after a three-month layoff only recently.
Having injured himself after the French Open, Khachanov had missed a string of grass and hardcourt competitions before finally entering the US Open. And he had been drubbed in straight sets in the first round there by Michael Mmoh.
Thankfully for Khachanov, that loss looked to have been an aberration as he went on to win the Zhuhai Open title earlier this week.
Having earned a first round bye in that tournament, Khachanov went on to defeat Alex Bolt, Mackenzie McDonald, Sebastian Korda and Yoshihito Nishioka to lift the trophy. He dropped just one set in the tournament.
Khachanov now faces a consistent Musetti in his opener, which makes it a difficult match for him but he does start off a 7/11 favourite with bet365 here.

Musetti Made Chengdu Semis
At the same time that Khachanov was playing in Zhuhai, Musetti was plying his trade in Chengdu. Like Khachanov he won his first two rounds there to make it to the semifinal before Roman Safiullin overcame him in straight sets.
And that has been Musetti’s story through most part of this season.
Having won a couple of titles last year, Musetti has been able to maintain a ranking of 18th in the world as opposed to his career-best of 15th but he has failed to make it to the final of even one tournament this season.
That doesn’t mean he has not been consistent – a win-loss record of 32-24 which includes a third round appearance at Wimbledon and fourth round at the French Open bears testimony to that.
He 6/5 (with bet365) to surprise Khachanov in what could be an evenly-fought match.
Khachanov v Musetti Prediction and Tip
Khachanov starts off a favourite and to our mind, those odds of 7/11 sound quite tempting. Backing the Russian to win this.
