Murray will look to have a deep run at the 2023 US Open, after a disappointing early exit from Wimbledon last month. The Briton missed the Cincinnati Open last week, owing to an injury, as he focused on his recovery for the US Open. The three-time Grand Slam champion reached the third round at the Flushing Meadows last year, where he was defeated by 13th-seeded Matteo Berrettini in four sets.

Corentin Moutet has played five tournaments in as many weeks in lead-up to the US Open. However, he has failed to make a big impact at any of the tournaments, losing in the first round of the Cincinnati Open. The Frenchman managed to reach the second round of Wimbledon, where he lost to Roman Safiullin in straight sets.

Sir Murray should certainly feel confident about his chances going into this fixture. He has been handed a favorable first-round draw for the first time in quite some time, and he will want to make the most of it. However, Corentin Moutet could cause some trouble to the Briton, given that he is a southpaw. Nevertheless, expect Murray to outplay his opponent, given his vast experience.

Prediction: Andy Murray to win in four sets
