Cressy came back from a set down to defeat the Italian 6-7(4), 6-2, 7-6(3) and seal his place in the quarterfinals of the competition.
Mannarino's best performance so far this season came at the Libema s-Hertogenbosch, where he reached the semifinals before losing 7-5, 7-5 to Daniil Medvedev.

Maxime Cressy vs Adrian Mannarino prediction
Cressy will enter the match as the favorite to win given he is the higher-ranked player and has produced some promising performances this season. However, Mannarino should not be written off as he has had a few good outings lately.
The Frenchman reached the quarterfinals of the Atlanta Open and put in a tough fight against Jannik Sinner in Cincinnati. He also got the better of two higher-ranked players in Winston-Salem and will look to give Cressy a run for his money.
The American will once again look to make the most out of the serve-and-volley game and will heavily rely on his serve for free points through aces. He also has a pretty good return game, which could come in handy against Mannarino's serve.
Cressy's double-fault count has been relatively low in Winston-Salem and he will have to ensure not to serve too many of those.
Mannarino's serve may not be as strong as Cressy's but it's still effective enough to fetch him aces. The Frenchman will try to dominate his service games and his on-court movement will be useful in dealing with his opponent's groundstrokes. Mannarino's excellent rally tolerance could be an important factor and will hinge on the Frenchman's ability to extend points.
Both players are capable of coming out on top, but Cressy's depth could see him come out on top and reach the semifinals of the Winston-Salem Open.
Pick: Cressy to win in three sets.
