Two italians will clash at the ATP event in Washington on Monday, when Matteo Arnaldi and Lorenzo Musetti come together. The pair will be meeting for the fifth time as pros. Arnaldi is searching for his first ever win against Musetti, but we probably shouldn't expect that elusive win against his compatriot to arrive on a hard surface.
As the world number 35, Matteo Arnaldi is very capable of competing at this level, and let's face it, it wouldn't be the largest shock if he was to get the better of his compatriot, but if we really think about it, on a hard surface Musetti definitely holds the edge, and not just a small one. As the better hard-court player out of the two, and as the player who has won every previous renewal of this match, Musetti deserves to be a shorter price ahead of this contest, so taking him to win at -175 offers value for money.

Our Matteo Arnaldi vs Lorenzo Musetti Prediction
However we look at this match, it's difficult to see Matteo Arnaldi doing enough to come out on top. Sure, on talent alone, he's good enough to beat top-20 players, but he's not at his best on hard court, while he may have a mental block when it comes facing Lorenzo Musetti, who has beaten Arnaldi on four previous occasions. If we also consider what happened when the pair met on a hard court in 2025, coupled with the fact that Musetti is strong on this surface against lower-ranked players, the higher-ranked Italian just looks too generously priced at -175. -200 would be a fairer reflection of his superiority,
