Lorenzo Musetti vs. Cameron Norrie Head-to-Head Record, Prediction and Betting Odds for ATP Citi DC Open 2025 Round-2

Both players are searching for their first title of 2025.

Second seed Lorenzo Musetti will begin his North American hard court swing against British southpaw Cameron Norrie on Tuesday. With BetMGM providing the most accurate betting odds for this Round of 32 clash at the 2025 Citi DC Open in Washington, find out all the predictions ahead of this blockbuster match-up. Can Norrie continue his winning run and upset the swashbuckling Italian?

After a shock first round exit at Wimbledon, Lorenzo Musetti returns to the American hard courts. The 23-year-old was a semifinalist at SW19 in 2024, which resulted in him dropping valuable ranking points in early July. Despite failing to secure a trophy this season, it has been a rewarding campaign for Musetti. The World No. 7 reached the final in Monte Carlo, before making a hat-trick of clay court semifinals at the Madrid Masters, Italian Open and Roland Garros.

After losing to the same opponent at Eastbourne last month, Cameron Norrie settled his score against Billy Harris on Monday. Entering this match with a 21-16 record in 2025, Norrie’s season picked up in May. The 29-year-old Brit reached the semifinal at the Geneva Open, before achieving a career-best Round of 16 finish at Roland Garros. In his most recent tournament, Norrie made the last eight at Wimbledon – losing to eventual runner-up Carlos Alcaraz.

Lorenzo Musetti vs Cameron Norrie Head to Head Record

Lorenzo Musetti leads the head-to-head against Cameron Norrie by 2-0. The 2025 Washington Open Round of 32 will mark the third meeting between these two players.

Musetti and Norrie have only battled each other on clay courts thus far. As a result, it will be their first hard court contest on Tuesday. Back in 2023, the duo met twice in approximately a month – at the Barcelona Open and French Open. While the Italian had to take an adventurous route to victory in the first clash, it was a relatively straightforward win at the clay court Grand Slam.

Lorenzo Musetti vs Cameron Norrie ATP Citi DC Open 2025 Prediction

With conditions expected to be warm and sunny, the courts could play faster and have a slightly higher bounce. This will play into Norrie’s hands – the Brit will look to take control of points early on. Meanwhile, expect a range of slice backhands from Musetti to slow down the pace of the encounter and test Norrie’s endurance. If Norrie extensively plays the push backhand down the line, the Italian could counter it with some added venom from his backhand wing.

Prediction: Cameron Norrie in three sets.
