Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction One – Handicap (-4.5) for Khachanov – 1.58.
Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction Two – Total Games Under 21 – 1.60.
Match Predict – Handicap (-4.5) for Pouille
Simon is now 37 years old. He is not as fast or as stable as he used to be. There are no special expectations from his play at the current tournament in Lyon. We believe that Khachanov should easily outplay Simon.
Total Games – Under 21
Khachanov has been doing quite well in the clay part of the season. In Belgrade, Karen managed to take a set from Djokovic and in Rome, he beat Carreno-Busta and took a set from Tsitsipas. We believe that the upcoming match against Simon will be completely dominated by the Russian.
Preliminary review and match prediction for Karen Khachanov vs Gilles Simon
Karen Khachanov:

Khachanov decided to play one more tournament a week before Roland Garros. This is probably the right decision, after all, Karen did not have so many matches on the clay in the spring.
At the Masters in Monte Carlo and Madrid, Karen failed to win a single round. If in the first case he lost to Diego Schwartzman (7-6, 3-6, 3-6), in the Spanish capital he was sensationally stopped by Luca Pouille (3-6, 4-6).
Khachanov’s main success on the clay so far this season has been reaching the third round of the recent Masters in Rome. The 25-year-old stopped Pablo Carreno-Busta (6-4, 2-6, 6-1) in the second round. It was his first win over a top-20 opponent since last October.
In the next match, Khachanov lost to Stefanos Tsitsipas (6-4, 0-6, 3-6).
Last year Khachanov reached the semi-finals in Lyon.
Gilles Simon:
Simon, meanwhile, is playing his last season on the professional tour. Not long ago, Simon announced that he would finish his career at the end of the year.
Judging by the results, Gilles is almost done. In eight previous matches, Gilles had only two victories. By the way, that happened in the qualifying of the current tournament.
