Match Predict – Handicap (-1) games for Basilashvili
Musetti is so far only good on clay courts. Lorenzo does not feel comfortable on faster surfaces. Lorenzo has played only one match on grass in his career. We don’t think he’ll have much of a chance in Stuttgart.
Total Games – Under 22.5
Musetti won his home Challenger last week in Forli and probably wants to get some rest now. Therefore, he is unlikely to try hard at the current tournament in Stuttgart.
Preliminary review and match prediction for Lorenzo Musetti vs Nikoloz Basilashvili
Lorenzo Musetti:
Musetti won his home Challenger in Forlì the day before, defeating his compatriot Francesco Passaro (2-6, 6-3, 6-2) in the final game.
So, Lorenzo should come to Stuttgart in high spirits. It’s worth remembering though, that Musetti is a clay-court player and he’s only played one match in his career on grass and lost. Last season he lost to Hubert Hurkacz (4-6, 6-7, 1-6) in the first round of Wimbledon.
Musetti has lost 3 times in his last 5 games against higher-ranked opponents.
Nikoloz Basilashvili:
At the current tournament in Stuttgart, Basilashvili will have to defend his previous year’s exit to the 1/8 finals. Recall that last year in the second round Nikoloz failed to cope with Marin Cilic (3-6, 2-6).
Overall, Nikoloz looks weak. He has 8wins against 17 defeats on his record. Basilashvili showed his best result of the year at the beginning of the year at Doha, where he managed to reach the finals, where he lost to Roberto Bautista Agut (3-6, 4-6).
Basilashvili has won six of his last eight battles played on German grass.
