Editorial Prediction (May 21, 2025, UTC):

Analyzing their recent performances, Potenza demonstrates superior return games and a marginally better second serve win rate, which could play significant roles in this matchup. Additionally, his success at converting break points and saving them appears advantageous.

Forti, while technically competent, has a slightly weaker record under pressure, particularly in deciding sets, where Potenza has shown considerable strength.

The head-to-head record is even, but given the strength in key areas and a solid history on hard surfaces, Potenza seems to have a slimmer edge going into this match. Therefore, Potenza is the likely favorite to win this forthcoming encounter.
