Head to Head: 25-11
In their past 36 encounters, Novak Djokovic leads the head to head record with 25-11 against Andy Murray. The last time they met each other was in Doha, Qatar in 2017 and they had their first encounter in 2006 at the ATP Masters 1000 in Madrid Spain. In both, the Serb defeated the Briton.
Prediction
Novak Djokovic finally seemed to be back with his form as he reached the final at the home ground following two early exits at Dubai and Doha. The 20-times Grand Slam champion is working on his potential ahead of the Roland Garros tournament.
Meanwhile, for Murray, everyone is aware of his physique and that he has been very unlucky with his hip problems and injuries. The British professional came past Dominic Thiem and Denis Shapovalov to reach the third round of the tournament while Novak defeated Gael Monfils to create a historical 18-0 dominating head to head record against the Frenchman following his first-round bye.
The pick of the match is Djokovic looking at his form and physical health as compared to Murray. This is going to be one of the greatest matches no doubt as the old rivals will finally be seen together again.
