Novak Djokovic vs Jannik Sinner prediction
Djokovic, known for his dominant indoor play, has been in top form, as evidenced by his recent victory at the Paris Masters.
The 24-time Grand Slam champion has been unbeaten since losing the final at Wimbledon against Carlos Alcaraz, winning the Cincinnati Masters, the US Open and the Masters 1000 event in Paris on the trot.
The Serb has been particularly strong at the start, winning the first set 8 times in his last 10 matches. Sinner has been on a roll as well, winning nine out of his last 10 matches. Both players like to battle it out from the baseline, and despite Sinner being a generational talent, the Serb has had his number in their past encounters.
Given the World No. 1's defensive acument, Jannik Sinner will have to be the aggressor on the night if he wants to have any chance of upsetting the veteran. His return game, therefore, will be key against Djokovic's efficient serve.
Djokovic, for the time being, will go into the contest with the upper hand.
Pick: Novak Djokovic in three sets.
