Grigor Dimitrov of Bulgaria will test the big-serving Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard in the first round of the 2025 Paris Masters on Monday.
Current Form:
Dimitrov is set to play his first match since his heartbreak loss to Jannik Sinner in the fourth round of the 2025 Wimbledon Open. Dimitrov is listed as the underdog at +125 because of the uncertainty surrounding his injury. The Bulgarian carries a 125-73 record in indoor matches or a 63 percent win rate in this playing condition.
Perricard looks to rebound after his first-round loss to Joao Fonseca 6-7, 3-6 in the first round of the 2025 Swiss Indoors Basel. Before his quick stint in Basel, the Frenchman had had a semifinal run at the 2025 ATP Brussels, where he picked up a top-10 win over Lorenzo Musetti before falling to Jiri Lehecka in straight sets.

Our Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard vs Grigor Dimitrov Prediction
Fearless Forecast: I am completely clueless as to how well Dimitrov will play in his first match in months. Dimitrov is always a dangerous player when he’s healthy but after pulling a pectoral muscle in his match against Sinner, it remains to be seen how good he will be post-injury. Meanwhile, Perricard will get a chance to get a marquee win against one of the better players in the past decade. The Frenchman possesses the ability to generate thunderous serves, allowing him to hold most of his service games. Honestly, I would be shocked if Dimitrov managed to pull off a win in this match. Coming off an injury, it will take severa matches for him to regain his timing and form and start playing at a high level.
