ATP Paris Masters: #16 Dimitrov v. Gasquet

Who will WIN this matchup?

#16 Grigor Dimitrov (BUL)

Richard Gasquet (FRA)

 

Current odds:

Grigor Dimitrov: (-334)

Richard Gasquet: (+250)

 

• Grigor Dimitrov made his first semifinal appearance of the season in San Diego last month and later made semifinal appearances in consecutive outings for the first time since 2017 by getting to that stage at Indian Wells a few days later. He scored a couple of confidence-boosting wins over Aslan Karatsev and Daniil Medvedev during this run.

• Richard Gasquet picked up an injury during his three-set win over Thomas Fabbiano in the second round of Brest Challenger last week and was forced to pull out of his quarterfinal encounter against compatriot Maxime Janvier.

• Head-to-head: Richard Gasquet leads 5-3 (0-1 in Paris Masters). Grigor Dimitrov and Richard Gasquet have some similarities as both are blessed with an abundance of talent, but neither of them could make the maximum out of it due to injuries and mental struggles in big matchups. The Bulgarian is in a much better physical shape at the moment, and he will start as the firm favorite.
