Greek player Stefanos Tsitsipas continues his campaign in the Paris Olympics. He will now face Novak Djokovic in the quarter finals and the odds are against him as expected. Tsitsipas remains far from a decent opposition against Novak as shown by the h2h record. 

Stefanos Tsitsipas played against Sebastian Baez in the last round and he won in straight sets. The result of the game in the end was 5-7,1-6. According to stats, Stefanos Tsitsipas’ record in that match was: 5 aces, 5 double faults, 36/59 first serve, 10 service games played, 8 service games won, 3/5 break points saved, 22/46 first serve return points and 5 break points converted.

Even though Djokovic has an outstanding win-loss record against him, and recent form and general experience in playing big-pressure matches make him the likely favourite, Tsitsipas can push Djokovic to his limits if he is aggressive enough and maintains that level of performance throughout the match. We predict Novak Djokovic will come out on top, but it should at least be an extremely competitive match with at least a set won by Tsitsipas.
