A devil or two (5)
I believe the answer is:
deuce
This clue is a double definition.
'a devil' is the first definition.
('deuce' can be a synonym of 'devil')
'two' is the second definition.
('deuce' can be a synonym of 'two')
'or' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for deuce that I've seen before include "Dickens" , "A two in playing cards" , "A two; forty all" , "score at Wimbledon?" , "with equal score" .)
