The
Moselle Open is due to take place between 2-8 November, 2025 and sees the end of the year begin in style on the ATP Tour prior to the ATP Finals alongside the Hellenic Championship.
Also known as 'The Green City', it is not only a tourist destination but the home of the ATP 250 which ends the season. It has also seen a lot of Frenchman win the title. Arnaud Clement won the title in 2003. Jerome Haehnel (2004), Gael Monfils (2009), Gilles Simon (2010, '13 and '18), Jo-Wilfried Tsonga (2011-'12, '15 and '19), Lucas Pouille (2016), Ugo Humbert (2023) and Benjamin Bonzi (2024) also did.
Albeit there will be a new champion with Humbert and Bonzi both withdrawing in the weeks prior to the event. It will have star power though with Felix Auger-Aliassime, Alexander Bublik leading the way alongside Flavio Cobolli, Tallon Griekspoor, Arthur Rinderknech, Cameron Norrie and Corentin Moutet.

Predictions
Samuel Gill, Head Editor for TennisUpToDate.com sees one of two winners this next week in Metz with big ATP Finals repercussions.
I see Alexander Bublik having a late run in Paris then finding his way suddenly into the field for the ATP Finals by winning this title. It would be so Bublik if he was to do this.
While Auger-Aliassime also likely sees this week ride on whether he plays in the season ender so a lot to correct and get right. Others I see having a good week include Arthur Rinderknech as well as Corentin Moutet and Learner Tien.
Also I see Cameron Norrie also figuring after dumping out Carlos Alcaraz in Paris, he could hit form at the right time here.
