LiontipsKaren Khachanov vs Novak Djokovic. Prediction and Betting Tips for ATP Astana (October 7, 2022).
Command Analysis
Karen Khachanov is having a decent tournament, despite not having any practice for about a month. He started his Astana campaign with a victory over Maxime Cressy (6-4, 7-6). In the second-round match, the Russian overcame Marin Cilic (2-6, 6-3, 6-3). Khachanov's best results this season so far are the runner-up finish in Adelaide and the semifinal at the US Open.
Novak Djokovic carries his momentum from last week's Tel Aviv Open victory. The Serbian star defeated Marin Cilic (6-3, 6-4) in the final. During that tournament, he did not drop a set, and so far all of his matches in Astana have also been won in two sets. In the first round, Djokovic closed Christian Garin (6-1, 6-1), and after that, he beat Botik Van de Zandshulp (6-3, 6-1).

Tip and bets
Khachanov is in good shape, but we doubt this will be enough to defeat Djokovic. The Serbian athlete is on fire - he cruised to his victory in Tel Aviv and seems unstoppable at the current tournament. We believe that Djokovic will easily overcome Khachanov in the upcoming match.
Our prediction - handicap (-5) to Djokovic
Djokovic was excellent in his previous two matches, surrending a total of six games to his opponents. We expect him to get a similarly easy victory over Khachanov, so take the under.
Second prediction - total under 20 games
