Britain’s Dan Evans looks to have a great chance of creating a bit of personal history at the US Open.

Dan Evans Preview – Can Brit make it to Round Four?

Dan Evans is back in the Third Round of the US Open for the fourth time in his career.

He has yet to make it past this stage of the Slam, or indeed at any of the Slams in his career.

But in the tennis betting outright market, Evans is the 8/13 odds-on favourite* (odds taken 20:10 GMT on September 2nd 2021 at Unibet).

This is a great chance for him to edge closer towards the second week of action at Flushing Meadows.

Evans opened in the First Round with a 3-1 win over Brazil’s Thiago Monteiro.

Then he claimed a second win by that same scoreline as he took out American Marcos Giron.

There has been good resilience shown by Evans after dropping the second set of both of those contests.

With a place in the Fourth Round at stakes, Evans meets Australia’s Alexei Popyrin.

Our betting prediction:
Dan Evans 3-1 set bteting
10/3

* (odds taken 20:10 GMT on September 2nd 2021 at Unibet)

 

For those looking for a continuation of the trend, an Evans 3-1 set betting option is at 10/3* (odds taken 20:10 GMT on September 2nd 2021 at Unibet).

Evans has met Popyrin once before and that meeting happened this year.

The two players came together at Queen’s on the grass and Evans won the contest in straight sets.

After Wimbledon, Evans had his season disturbed with injury and illnesses.

He had lost all but one of his five matches between the end of Wimbledon and the start of the US Open.

But he looks to be back to something like his usual self with those two wins under his belt at Flushing meadows.

They will only serve to sharpen him up further and this isn’t a bad draw for him.

 

Alexei Popyrin Preview – Can Popyrin take his chance?

Australia’s Alexie Popyrin had a good warm-up tournament ahead of the US Open.

He won three matches at Winston Salem to get a bit of momentum under his belt.

Popyrin opened his US Open account with a 3-1 success before getting a stroke of luck.

He was up against 15th seed Grigor Dimitrov in the second round.

But his Bulgarian opponent had to retire from the match, handing Popyrin a huge favour.

In the match outright for tennis betting, Popyrin is a quote of 13/10 underdog* (odds taken 20:10 GMT on September 2nd 2021 at Unibet).

The 22-year-old is in the main draw at the US Open for just the second time.

On his tournament debut in 2019, he did reach the Third Round.

Alexei Popyrin has not been past the Third Round of any Slam during his short career.

So with Evans in the same boat, this is a huge opportunity for one of them.

The pressure is rising now and Over 38.5 Total Games is a tennis betting option at 10/11* (odds taken 20:10 GMT on September 2nd 2021 at Unibet).

Before that run at Winston Salem, Popyrin had been well out of form.

Can he take his chance while he appears to be in the groove?

 

Dan Evans vs Alexei Popyrin Betting Advice

Looking at the track record of younger Alexei Popyrin, this may be his limit at the moment in terms of progress in a bigger event.

He has rediscovered a bit of form with five wins in his last six on the hard court now, but we think he drops from the draw.

Evans is the way to go at a quote of 8/13* (odds taken 20:10 GMT on September 2nd 2021 at Unibet).

 

Key Facts – Dan Evans vs Alexei Popyrin Betting Tip

  • Dan Evans beat Popyirn at Queens this year
  • Dan Evans has yet to make it past the Third Round of any Slam
  • Alexei Popyrin is in just his second US Open draw

 

Evans is the more experienced of the two and looks to be getting a second wind for the season after a tough summer.

We are simply pulling towards the greater experience of the Brit to pull through.

Still, that Evans 3-1 set betting option may be worth a look at 10/3* (odds taken 20:10 GMT on September 2nd 2021 at Unibet).

As much as Popyrin was handed a gift with the retirement of Grigor Dimitrov in the last round, that could simply play to Evans’ favour in the longer term.
