LiontipsDjokovic vs Ebden. Olympic Match Prediction and Bets
Command Analysis
Djokovic has won ten matches on clay this season, losing three. On this surface, Novak reached the semi-finals of the Monte Carlo Masters, where he lost to Casper Ruud. The Serb also played in the semi-finals of the competition in Geneva, where he lost to Tomas Machac. And in Paris, as part of Roland Garros, Djokovic made it to the quarter-finals. It should be noted that in 2021, at the Tokyo Olympics, Novak managed to reach the semi-finals.
Ebden has not played a single match in singles this season. The Australian got to the Olympics in Paris as a reserve player after Holger Rune withdrew from the tournament. The last time Matthew took to the court in an official singles match was in August 2022. Then he took part in the tournament in Winston-Salem, where he failed to overcome the qualification, losing to Marc-Andre Huesler. It is worth noting that Ebden will play at the Olympics for the first time in his career.

Three of Djokovic's last five matches have seen the first set go to fewer than 9.5 games. Expect Novak's upcoming matchup against Ebden to start with a low-scoring first set as well.
