THE PREDICTION

World number 53 Lorenzo Sonego and number 43 Dan Evans played out a thrilling second round clash here in Miami 12 months ago and they enjoyed another entertaining clash at the Australian Open in January, with Sonego coming back from a set down on both occasions. The Italian leads their head-to-head record 3-0 after also beating Evans en-route to the Vienna Open final in 2020 but their recent matches are more representative of two players who are far better than their current rankings suggest, with Sonego struggling with consistency issues and Evans recently suffering a few injury setbacks. 33-year-old Evans brings a three-match losing streak into this fourth encounter to look the reasonable underdog but Sonego is a hard player to back with confidence. Based on his record the Italian can be backed to edge through outright here but do consider taking this likely thriller to see three sets, with both players well-versed in battles on court.

TIP: TOTAL 3 SETS
