Taylor Fritz

Expert Betting Tips
Taylor Fritz, on past form and playing style, should really have too much power between the two of them. However, if Musetti could apply his creative game to its full extent and find a possible inconsistency in Fritz's play, then it would be much more difficult. This match should be tight, with Musetti well capable of taking a set, but the overall consistency and power of Fritz should see him through.
