Djokovic vs Fucsovics Prediction | French Open Betting Tips
Djokovic vs Fucsovics Recent Form
Listing the stats for Novak would be a pointless task, as the Serb has broken countless records in his career. However, one thing we can point out is that his preparation for clay didn’t go as planned. As Djokovic mentioned, he needs quite some time to adapt to the unique elements of clay courts.
Most recently, Novak played in Rome. After a promising start, he lost in the quarterfinals to Holger Rune (6:2, 4:6, 6:2). The 20-year-old Dane has stopped Novak for the second time, showing that the tennis giant is not invincible. However, Djokovic is a different person regarding Grand Slams, as we have seen with his 22 Grand Slam titles.
Marton Fucsovics, the 31-year-old Hungarian, is an all-round player. His career-high rank was reaching the 31st spot on the ATP list. However, the only title he won was Geneva in 2018. Moreover, his performance against top 10 players is 2:25, and 0:3 this season.
Most recently, he played in Lyon, where he lost to Sabestian Baez (4:6, 6:7) in his first round. He had a bit longer run before that in Rome, where he reached the round of 32. He beat Filip Krajinovic and Alex de Minaur before finally losing to Cameron Norrie (2:6, 6:7).
Djokovic vs Fucsovics Head to Head
While both are enjoying long tennis careers, the two have clashed four times so far. Novak Djokovic won all four of these games. However, this will be the first time they play each other on clay.
Djokovic vs Fucsovics Tips
Understandably, Novak Djokovic is the heavy favourite in this matchup. The odds for Novak to win stand at 1.05 and for Fucsovics at 10.00. Definitely, it all points to an easy match for Novak, but in our Djokovic vs Fucsovics prediction, we are aware of the countless aspects that could affect the outcome.
Namely, Novak’s lack of time to prepare for the clay court is one of the elements that could benefit Fucsovics. While Novak is a beast when playing Slams, Fucsovics could perhaps get away with a set. The line for the number of gems is 29.5, and the odds for over stand at 1.90.
The odds for Novak to win in straight sets stand at 1.50. Oppositely, for Fucsovics to take at least one, the odds are at 2.45. Novak almost dropped the third set against Aleksandar Kovacevic as he lost focus. If this happens again, Fucsovics could use the given chance, but it all depends on Novak’s day.
