SAM QUERREY

  • American Sam Querrey returns to action for the first time since making the Houston semi-finals back in early April following a stomach issue.
  • Querrey has dropped to 79th in the world following a poor 2018 campaign and a poor start to this year which has been disrupted by injury.
  • The 2017 Wimbledon semi-finalist has a 70-41 record on grass and he has one grass court title that came way back at Queen’s in 2010.

DUSAN LAJOVIC

  • Serbian Dusan Lajovic is ranked 33rd in the world and is the fourth seed at Eastbourne International and has a 13-14 record this season.
  • 28-year-old Lajovic received a bye in the first round and his last tournament appearance was at the French Open where he reached the round of 32.
  • The right-handed Serbian has no career singles titles and the Serbian will also be competing in the doubles at Eastbourne with Marco Cecchinato.

THE PREDICTION

Lajovic won the only previous encounter against Querrey at the 2016 Australian Open when the American retired with the game tied after four sets. Lajovic has not competed on grass this year and even though Querrey has struggled with injuries, he has performed well on grass in the past so expect the American to come out on top and progress to the next round.
