Andreas Seppi

The Italian Davis Cup star's game is suited to clay courts, so he will probably find his return to Devonshire Park a difficult test before The Championships at SW19.

Although has been world ranked within the top 30, inconsistency has resulted in just three runner-up slots to his credit - each on clay.

Eastbourne's fast service is mission impossible for Seppi, who won three matches during the 2009 grass court season but lost as many. Bowed out at the third round of Wimbledon in 2008 and 2009.

Reached second round of 2010 French Open.

Realistic chances of winning // No hope.
