Norrie vs Musetti Head-to-Head

Lorenzo Musetti leads Cameron Norrie 1-0 in their head-to-head. The Italian defeated the Brit at the 2023 Barcelona Open in three sets.

Norrie vs Musetti Prediction

Norrie’s passage to the third round has been by a couple of contrasting performances. He encountered a major speedbump in the first round, needing to show resilience and required a bit of luck to snatch an unlikely win over Benoit Paire in five sets. He had a more comfortable afternoon in beating qualifier Lucas Pouille in his next assignment in straight sets. Lorenzo Musetti comes into their third-round showdown in fine fettle. Musetti has reached the quarterfinals in at least three clay-court tournaments in the leadup to Roland Garros and has masked his weaknesses so far by going all out with high-intensity attacking tennis. He’s been rewarded as a result with a couple of straight sets wins. The Italian finds himself as the favorite on Friday and form-wise, he should be generally pleased with how well he is striking the ball with a very low margin for error. Norrie, on the other hand, is not and has been very profligate, which makes him a tough one to pick here.
