Prediction and Conclusion

Both players beat the odds to get this far in the tournament. This will be the third final for both players this season, and only Paul has won a title in 2024. At the same time, it will be their first meeting, which makes this match tough to predict. Still, knowing their game, Paul is the better overall player and is known as a player who can be consistent, which is not the case with Musetti. Given the odds, this should be a close match, but Paul will take care of business in straight sets.
