Prediction for the ATP Cincinnati match, which will take place on August 17th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Alejandro Davidovich Fokina

For the Spaniard, Cincinnati is the second hard-court tournament after the dirt part of the season. In Toronto, Alejandro was successful and reached the semifinals but lost to Alex De Minaur in two sets. In Cincinnati, the Spaniard had already played one match and confidently knocked out Argentine Etcheverry in straight sets, 6-3, 6-3. Davidovic made one double-fault once, winning 61% of points on his first serve and 62% on his second. Return statistic 44%/62%, winners/unforced errors 17/12.

Novak Djokovic

The last time we saw Novak on the court was July 16 and the Wimbledon final against Alcaraz. Novak was distraught by that loss, as he failed to win a season Slam again. Recall that he won the first two TBS, the Australian Open and Roland Garros, and came close to winning Wimbledon. The upcoming match will be Novak's first on hard court since the spring of 2023.

Expert Betting Tips

For Djokovic, the match against Davidovich Fokina will be the first hard-court match in a long time, so he has not had any match practice for precisely one month. On the other hand, Alejandro played very well at the Masters in Toronto, and here in Cincinnati, he has already managed to take a confident win against a top 40 player. Djokovic will not have an easy time today, and Davidovich Fokina will give the world number two a good fight.
