Hurkacz vs Musetti Prediction

We’ve got an interesting third-round match at Wimbledon on Friday as former semifinalist Hubert Hurkacz takes on Italy’s Next Gen star Lorenzo Musetti. Hurkacz has played himself into form here after a below-par lead-up to Wimbledon where he lost to Jan-Lennard Struff in the Stuttgart semifinal and saw his Halle title defense come to a screeching halt at the hands of Tallon Griekspoor. He’s had a soft draw for starters at SW19, beating Spanish clay-courter Ramos Vinolas 6-1, 6-4, 6-4 and British wild card Jan Choinski 6-4, 6-4, 7-6.

Musetti, meanwhile, advanced into the Wimbledon third round for the first time, defeating Juan Pablo Varillas and Jaume Munar without dropping a set. Musetti has been playing well to justify being an attractive underdog pick at +132 odds. But proven pedigree is hard to pick against. Hurkacz is able to mask his problems better on grass than on any other surface. And his serve might be the shot that gets him over the line here.
