Musetti Finds Form in Rotterdam
Not many people expected Lorenzo Musetti to play in the Rotterdam final yet Italian players is going to do just that. Arriving at this event in rather poor form, Musetti played fabulous tennis to reach the quarterfinal of an ATP 500 event with a decent chance of going even further.
Getting to the quarterfinal took work as Musetti won two 3-set matches against fairly good opposition. In the first round, it was Mikael Ymer who was taken down with Hubert Hurkacz being the victim in the 2nd round. The win over Hurkacz was very significant for Musetti in terms of building up much-needed confidence.
Ever since he nearly ousted Djokovic at the French Open, Musetti was seen as a breakout candidate yet the Italian largely disappointed. Results like these will get him back on track especially on hard courts where he doesn’t play his best tennis.

First ATP Event Wonders for Lehecka
Jiri Lehecka never played an ATP before Rotterdam with the Czech player scoring his first Tour-level win here as well. He followed that up with another win to secure his maiden quarterfinals and it comes at an ATP 500 event which is more than respectable from the youngster.
Getting here took a lot of work as Lehecka came through the qualifiers but they served him as great preparation for the main event. I nth first round he encountered Denis Shapovalov on one of his bad days and took advantage of it. He bravely took down dutch top player Botic Van de Zandschulp in the next round.
Now, for a spot in the semifinal, he will face Musetti, another player who found form in Rotterdam. There won’t be any pressure but which so much to gain, Lehecka might pull it off.
Musetti v Lehecka Prediction and Tip
Lorenzo Musetti is the better player overall and there is no question about it but tennis is a very nuanced sport with many different things determining who will win a match. Both of these players will be confident heading into this matchup as they both overcame adversity and found form at this event.
Musetti has more experience with matches like these but he will also have more pressure to win the match as the ‘better’ player. As they never played before it’s hard to predict how it will shape up but Musetti has more variety. Lehecka has the better serve by far but on the slower Rotterdam court that doesn’t matter that much.
A close match is to be expected with both having chances to win but Musetti has shown resilience this week that we haven’t seen in a while. Something is working for the Italian and I expect it will continue. I don’t think he will do it in two but a three-set victory would be in line with the script Musetti followed so far.
Tip: Musetti to win in three sets: 3/1 (Click Here to Bet with bet365)
