Sock vs. Pouille
Lucas Pouille couldn’t have asked for more on his return to Europe. Besides winning his third title of the season at the Erste Bank Open 500 in Vienna, the 23-year-old is one win away from his first-ever appearance at the Rolex Paris Masters quarter-finals. Adding to this, Lucas didn’t allow a single break point opportunity to Feliciano Lopez on his debut in Paris with the Spaniard winning only 11.11% of the points played on Pouille’s serve.
Playing in Paris brings great memories to Jack Sock. After reaching the Rolex Paris Masters quarter-finals in 2016, the 25-year-old American is looking for a second consecutive apperance at that stage of the competition in Paris. Looking now at Jack’s campaign on this event, the world No.22 reaches this stage of the competition after an epic comeback from 1 – 5 down on the decisive set against Kyle Edmund.
Despite Sock’s incredible win, there are some concerns regarding his physical condition with the American receiving treatment for injury on the previous round. On the other hand, Pouille is going through one of the best moments in his career. For that reason, it’s not surprising to see Lucas as the main favourite to win this match at 9/20 at BetVictor while William Hill offers 2/1 for Sock’s victory. Due to the low price on Pouille’s moneyline, our suggestion is for you to place a bet on his -1.5 Set Handicap 113/100 xx at Pinnacle as the best betting approach for this contest.
