Alejandro Tabilo has proven to be a tricky opponent, and his prowess showed as he progressed to the Chengdu Open final. The qualifier sets up a second meeting with top seed Lorenzo Musetti in the title match. We have a prediction below.

World number nine Musetti is playing in his second straight Chengdu Open final. He’s ever lost just two matches in the 10 he’s played here. After falling in last season’s title match, the Italian stormed into the 2025 final with the easiest win of his 10 matches in Chengdu.

He beat Alexander Shevchenko 2-0 by only losing four games while spending one hour and five minutes. The 23-year-old enters this game sitting ninth in the live rank.

Tabilo, the man on the other side of the court, arrives here with great momentum after starting from the qualifying rounds. The Chilean battled through the semis, overcoming fourth seed Brandon Nakashima 2-0 after needing a tiebreaker for the second set.

That was the third of his six matches here that he lost at least 10 games. Surprisingly, one of the matches he lost the least games was when he played his strongest opponent—Luciano Darderi, the second seed here.

Beating two seeded players on his way will pump up the Chilean, whose record for the season improves to 20-17 and live ranking by eight places to 82nd. Before arriving in Chengdu, Tabilo had failed to reach a quarter-final this season.
