Novak Djokovic
Novak Djokovic had a great start this year, he won the Australian Open and is 15-1 on hard courts, but after switching to clay, he did not win a single tournament and lost first place in the rankings.
The eliminations in the round of 16 in Monte Carlo, the quarterfinals in Banja Luka, and the quarterfinals in Rome are the best indicator that he did not play at the highest level in tournaments on earth, and therefore the great Alcaraz entered this French Open as the first favorite.
Nevertheless, Novak is a player who has won 22 Grand Slam titles and always plays his best tennis at these tournaments. Here, he passed the first two rounds without much difficulty, and today, in the form of Alejandra Davidovich Fokine, he will have the biggest obstacle for the second week of Roland Garros.

Alejandro Davidovich Fokina
Alejandro Davidovich Fokina is a 23-year-old who is a top 50 player in the all-around tennis category and certainly has the potential to do much more during his career.
Alejandro Davidovich Fokina is the junior champion of Wimbledon and a player who can play at a very high level on all types of surfaces, but his games in the senior competition are an indication that clay suits him best.
He is a player who is very difficult to find a weak point, he moves very well, has a quality serve, plays well on both sides, can play a quality drop shot and manage at the net, and when he is in shape, he can be a very difficult opponent, which he has proven Novak at last year’s Monte Carlo.
Davidovich Fokina has already had several quality tournaments on clay this year, where the quarterfinals of Barcelona and the round of 16 of Madrid stand out, and here he, without major difficulties and dominated from the baseline, kicked out two local players, Flis and van Assche. If he repeats such a game today, he will certainly create big problems for Novak as well.

Novak Djokovic vs Alejandro Davidovich Fokina H2H
Djokovic and Davidovich Fokina have had three matches so far, and it is currently 2:1 for Novak.

Novak Djokovic vs Alejandro Davidovich Fokina Prediction
Novak is not having the best season on clay so far, but he is a player who always plays the best tennis at Grand Slam tournaments, and it is extremely difficult to knock him out when he plays in three sets won. Novak can certainly reach 23 GS titles at this year’s French Open, although the bookmakers give Alcaraz an advantage. In this match, we think he will have big problems.
Alejandro Davidovich Fokina is extremely dangerous when he plays in top form, as Novak saw for himself in last year’s Monte Carlo. He is certainly not a desirable opponent at this stage of the Grand Slam tournament for any top 5 players, and considering the game shown in the first two matches, we think that he will cause significant problems for Novak.
