Musetti will next face world number 18 Jack Draper after the Briton defeated Tomas Machac of the Czech Republic in his quarter-final 6-3, 3-6, 6-1.
“I thought the first set was really physical. It’s always tough playing Tomas, he’s so solid off the ground,” said Draper after booking his place in an eighth tour semi-final.
Australian second seed Alex de Minaur needed to battle from a set down to defeat Czech teenager Jakub Mensik 6-7 (2/7), 6-3, 6-4.
De Minaur, who still has a chance of making the season-ending ATP Finals in Turin, will face Karen Khachanov on Saturday for a place in the Vienna final.
Russia’s Khachanov eased past Italy’s Matteo Berrettini 6-1, 6-4.
