LiontipsNovak Djokovic vs Daniil Medvedev. Prediction and Betting Tips for 2023 Adelaide International 1 (January 7, 2023).
Command Analysis
Novak Djokovic hasn't dropped a set in Adelaide. That said, his campaign wasn't easy at all - in the second-round match, the Serbian athlete had a really tough battle with Quentin Halys, whom he managed to overcome on two tie-breaks. Before that, Djokovic got a confident victory over Constant Lestienne (6-3, 6-2), and in the quarterfinals, he defeated Denis Shapovalov (6-3, 6-4).
Daniil Medvedev has been very collected in Adelaide so far. He won all his matches in straight sets and lost his serve only twice in three matches. In the opening round, Medvedev walked over Lorenzo Sonego. Then he defeated Miomir Kecmanovic (6-0, 6-3) and celebrated success over his compatriot Karen Khachanov (6-3, 6-3) in the quarterfinal.
Tip and bets
The opponents have met 12 times, and most of those matches were quite long. For instance, last year, Djokovic and Medvedev battled in Astana and in Turin for a long time. We predict another three-set match.
Our prediction - total over 22 games
Djokovic isn't in his best shape, and Medvedev can take advantage of that. Even though the Serb is the favourite, we expect Medvedev to put up a fight and at the very least maintain the handicap of three games.
Second prediction - handicap (+3) to Medvedev
