Musetti vs Ymer Prediction

We have an interesting battle between two players who are only three years apart. 21-year-old Musetti, however, ranks higher than 24-year-old Mikael Ymer. The young Italian has also had a more distinguished young career winning two ATP titles and breaking the world’s top 20. Musetti is also an accomplished performer on clay and will be expected to breeze through this opening round. Mikael Ymer comes into this match with his reputation taking a major hit. He lost his cool during the Lyon Open round of 16 match against Arthur Fils, bashing a hole in the umpire’s chair and getting defaulted for his actions. The Swede will need to put that disappointment aside as the prize and stakes are much higher in Paris. We like Musetti to win this match having hit his stride during the European clay. Musetti ML is the safest pick here.
