THE PREDICTION
31-year-old Dan Evans claimed one of his best ever results on clay last week with a three-set win in a thrilling match with Roberto Bautista Agut. The Brit gave a good account of himself against Andrey Rublev in the round of 16 before defeat but it will take some doing to emulate his best Masters run after he beat Novak Djokovic, Hubert Hurkacz and David Goffin en-route to last season’s Monte-Carlo Open semi-finals. 30-year-old Nikoloz Basilashvili beat Fabio Fognini in straight sets before a second round loss to man of the moment Carolos Alcaraz and the Georgian has improved in recent weeks after a real dirge of results since losing the Qatar Open final back in February. Evans beat Basilashvili in straight sets in their only previous meeting at Wimbledon in 2019 and backing him to win at least a set to leave the winner up to chance looks reasonable here.
