Novak Djokovic vs Lorenzo Musetti Prediction & Picks - ATP Monte Carlo Masters

Of course, as is the case almost every time the everpresent Djokovic walks on the court, whether it's clay, hard or grass, this is a big opportunity for the world number one and it would be a surprise if he didn't come out on top, though we shouldn't completely rule out the Italian here. Musetti is probably at his best on clay, while his record against his Serbian opponent is good on a clay surface. Not only did he beat Djokovic at this tournament a year ago, but he also took two sets off the 24-time Grand Slam winner 2021 French Open. Factor in that he looked in great form when beating the highly-rated Arthur Fils yesterday, which followed a straight-set win over Taylor Fritz and the world number 24 is worth betting on to avoid a straight-set defeat. Our Prediction: Lorenzo Musetti 1.5 Set Handicap.
