Lucas Pouille - Ricardas Berankis

Marbella, 1. round, clay.

Very interesting match as we have quite OK player on clay Luca Pouille and very bad player on Clay Richard Berankis.

We do not need talk a lot about this match and go to main points.

1) Ričardas often easily looses all his clay matches and we good runs on Clay courts in Challenger doesn't mean anything. While Luca showed his skills on ATP level and we can expect him to play way better.

2) Luca can play on Clay as we know French people really enjoys this surface and often chooses it on Davis cup.

3) Luca skipped USA tour and other tournaments with hard surface so he had a lot of time to get ready, while Berankis played in Miami and trained on hard courts.
