 Lorenzo Mussetti vs. Novak Djokovic is the third quarter final for the Paris Masters for 2022. And both guys have had different rows to get to this stage. Mussetti started the tournament off as an unseeded player and will take on the number 15 seed Chilic. And on paper this was a tough match, but Mussetti got through easily in straight sets, 6-4, 6-4. In the second round, he would take on Basilash Vili, another unseeded player. And again, he had no trouble with Basilash Vili winning in straight sets, 6-4, 6-2. In the third round, he would take on the number 3 seed Kasper Brud, who had just beat the local Hope Gaskay in the second round. And after dropping the first set, he said he came back from the dead, getting through in 3, 4-6, 6-4, 6-4 to get to the quarter finals. Novak Djokovic entered the tournament as the number 6 seed and got a buy in the first round. In the second round, he'd take on the serve volley player Kressy. And after a very close first set, where Kressy pushed Djokovic and pressured him, Noley eventually prevailed in straight sets, 7-6, 6-4. In the third round, he'd take on Karin Hashinov, a man that he had played already three times in 2022. And after a frustrating first set, Djokovic got it together in the second, beating Hashinov again in straight sets, 6-4, 6-1 to advance to the quarter final stage. These guys have played twice before, with Djokovic leading the head-to-head 2-0 in their previous meeting being in Dubai. Earlier this year, a straight sets win for Djokovic. And of course, we know about the French Open match they played last year, where Djokovic had to go to five sets, eventually prevailing against Mousedi there. If Mousedi is going to win this match, he needs to be clean. We love it when we see Mousedi playing well and when he's getting everything in. But sometimes he does get a little bit error-filled, kind of like what Shapovalov does as well against other players. So he plays clean as the back ends working and the shots are going in. This could be a really fun matchup, but he needs that to work in order to be a chance. If Djokovic is going to win, he just needs to play his game. He knows he can beat Mousedi. He did it earlier in the year without much of a problem. He knows he can beat him on an indoor hard court surface and he knows he can do it in Paris because he's dominated this tournament over the last decade. But he does need to be clean and he also needs to keep his cool. He was a little frustrated against Hashinov, so he needs to keep his cool and not let Mousedi's shot-making get to him. This is going to be a fun match if Mousedi can play his best. We all know what we're getting at for Djokovic, but we need to see Mousedi playing his best to make this interesting. I think Djokovic is going to win in straight sets though. The match in Dubai earlier this year kind of showed what Djokovic really can do against someone like Mousedi. And even back then, Djokovic hadn't played that much tennis before that match. In fact, it was his first tournament back after not playing from last year. So I think Djokovic is going to win in straight sets. He's looking much better now. But let me know down in the comments below. Who do you think is going to win this match up?
