Dan Evans v Lucas Pouille Head to Head
Evans and Pouille have featured in just one, career head-to-head outing thus far. They played each other in the first round of the 2019 US Open, with Evans prevailing in four sets.

Evans Lost Cincinnati Opener to Schwartzman
Coming into the Cincinnati Masters carrying the disappointment of back-to-back opening-round exits at Washington Open and the Canadian Open, Evans ran into current World No. 14 Diego Schwartzman in his tournament opener.
Though the British No.1 put up a spirited fight against the Argentine, taking the second set after going down tamely in the first, Schwartzman prevailed in the end.
However, Evans, ranked 27th in singles currently, will hope to return to winning ways as he opens his campaign at the Winston-Salem Open.
However, the standing between the top British star and a place in the fourth round is Frenchman Lucas Pouille, who has had a strong run at the tournament so far and would be hoping to go deeper.
Evans, who had a decent grass court season this year, finishing in the quarter-finals of the Queen’s Club Championships and the third round the Wimbledon Championships, is yet to hit his straps in the ongoing US leg of the hard court swing.
Winston-Salem presents the last opportunity for the Brit to get in top shape and form ahead of the US Open and he would be itching to make the opportunity count.

Pouille Upsets Lopez in Opener
Ranked comfortably outside the Top-100 currently, Pouille came into the Winston-Salem Open on the back of a woeful run of results — opening-round exits at Austrian Open, Croatia Open and German Open.
However, the Frenchman has taken a shot at redemption since, winning both his qualifying matches to reach the main draw at Winston-Salem and following up with a stunning upset of veteran French star Feliciano Lopez.
Taking the momentum from his qualifying wins into his opening-round encounter, Pouille produced a spectacular brand of tennis, leaving the seasoned Spaniard searching for answers.
Before Lopez could even catch a blink, the first set was gone 1-6. With a spring in his step, the Frenchman turned the screws on the British No.1 to come away with an emphatic 6-1, 6-4 victory.
Evans v Pouille Prediction and Tip
Though Evans is placed significantly higher in the rankings and should start as favorite in this second-round clash, Pouille, on current form, should fancy handing him an upset.
Tip: Three sets to win in the match: 6/4 (Click Here to Bet with bet365)
