Daniel Evans

The 33-year-old representative of Great Britain, in turn, is just getting ready to start at the tournament in China. Evans last played at the Davis Cup. On September 13, Daniel played two matches. First , the Briton beat Alex De Minaur from Australia in a singles match in three sets – 6:1; 2:6; 6:4. And in the evening Evans, along with Neil Skupski, lost in two sets to the Australians Matthew Ebden and Max Purcell – 6:7 (5:7); 4:6.

On September 15, Evans again played a doubles match for the national team. This time Daniel, along with Neil Skupski, beat Swiss Dominik-Stefan Strikker and Stanislas Wawrinka in two sets – 6:3; 6:3.

On September 17, on the final day of the Davis Cup, Daniel Evans again played two matches. First , in singles, Evans won a strong -willed victory over Frenchman Arthur Fils in three sets – 3:6; 6:3; 6:4. And in the evening doubles match, Evans and Neil Skupski won a very difficult and strong-willed victory over Nicolas Mayu and Edouard Roger–Vasselin in three sets - 1:6; 7:6 (7:4); 7:6 (8:6).

Recall that at the moment Daniel Evans is ranked 27th in the ATP ranking.

Daniel Evans and Roman Safiullin played together on the first of February 2019 at the challenger in France. Then on hard Evans won a strong-willed victory in three sets – 3:6; 6:3; 7:6 (7:1).

Forecast

In this match, Roman Safiullin is quite rightly considered a small favorite among bookmakers. A difficult match may well await the Russian tennis player, but Evans may not fully recover after the Davis Cup matches and think more about the upcoming Masters in Kit.
