Lorenzo Musetti vs Giovanni Mpetschi Perricard – Wimbledon Tennis Prediction and Pick 7/8/24

Number 25 seed Lorenzo Musetti will play French lucky loser Giovanni Mpetschi Perricard in the fourth round of the 2024 Wimbledon Championships. The match is scheduled for Monday, July 8, 2024. Here’s our Lorenzo Musetti vs Giovanni Mpetschi Perricard prediction.

Lorenzo Musetti vs Giovanni Mpetschi Perricard Preview

Lorenzo Musetti saw off Argentina’s Francisco Comesana in four sets. The match lasted three and a half hours and took 43 games to decide. In the victory, Musetti compiled 42 winners to 35 unforced errors. The Italian landed 68% first serves and won 72% first-serve points (69/96). Musetti won 71% second-serve points (32/45). He converted three of 16 break points. His opponent, meanwhile, failed to take any of four break points in the match. It’s the first time he has reached the second week of Wimbledon.

Giovanni Mpetschi Perricard is making the most of his second opportunity. The French youngster was beaten in the final round of qualifying but got in as a lucky loser. The 20-year-old has powered into the Wimbledon fourth round in some style with his humongous serve and forehand. He secured wins over Sebastian Korda, Yoshihito Nishioka, and Emil Ruusuvuori in the main draw. In his victory over the Finn, Mpetschi Perricard needed four sets and two and a half hours. He hammered 27 aces and 53 winners overall.

Lorenzo Musetti vs Giovanni Mpetschi Perricard Head-To-Head

Lorenzo Musetti vs Giovanni Mpetschi Perricard Prediction

What an opportunity for one of these two undercards to reach the quarterfinal. When they met in Stuttgart last month, Musetti needed two tiebreak sets to prevail. Mpetschi Perricard has since grown in confidence, highlighted by his stoic run to the round of 16 with his monstrous serve. Word is he’s the best server in men’s tennis right now, and the court is tailor-made for it to function at peak level. I fancy that shot to come up trumps again, as it has done in the last three matches.
