Novak Djokovic vs Lorenzo Musetti : Prediction
Musetti has played a long season on Clay both on Challenger and ATP tours and has had plenty of experience on the soil. He will come in confident looking to cause the biggest upset but it won’t be an easy affair against the rampant Serbian who is yet to drop a set at the French Open 2021.
