Novak Djokovic vs Taylor Fritz Prediction: Djokovic will advance

The Australian Open enters its Quarter Final stage and two familiar names have made it to this stage of the competition. Novak Djokovic and Taylor Fritz will go to battle for a place in the Semi Final. 

It comes as little surprise to see Novak Djokovic get into this stage of the competition. The 10-time Australian Open winner will be looking to add into his trophy collection after winning the competition last year, but first he has to see off a challenge from Taylor Fritz.

Novak Djokovic won all 4 games he played in the Australian Open so far. His first win was against Dino Prizmic in the round of 128 and he won 3:1. Then he beat Alexei Popyrin in the next round by the same scoreline. And in the round of 32, he faced Martin Etcheverry Mas, and won in straight sets before beating Adrian Manarino in his last game in straight sets.

Taylor Fritz will be playing in the Quarter Final of the Australian Open for the very first time in his career. Last year he made it to the 2nd round but he was eliminated by Alexei Popyrin in a tight contest. This year Taylor Fritz started the competition with a 3:2 win over Facundo Diaz Acosta. And in the next round, he defeated Hugo Gaston in straight sets (3:0) to book his place in the Round of 32. Then he faced Fabian Marozsan and won 3:1, before beating Stefanos Tsitsipas in the last round (3:1).

Taylor Fritz has not recorded a single win over Novak Djokovic in his entire career. The pair have faced each other 8 times in total and Djokovic won all 8 games.

Djokovic has a perfect record against Taylor Fritz and there is a strong indication that the domination will continue here.
