Dino Prizmic vs Novak Djokovic prediction
Dino Prizmic continued his good form as he defeated Marton Fucsovics in straight sets to book his place in the second-round of the Italian Open. The Croatian, who won both of his qualifying matches, won 6-4 6-3. Prizmic also qualified for the Madrid Open, advancing to the third-round, while he made the final of an event in Monza on the Challenger Tour last month.
He takes on 24-time Grand Slam champion Novak Djokovic in the second-round. The Serb makes his return to the tour, having not competed since his loss to Jack Draper at the round-of-16 stage of Indian Wells. He decided to skip events in Miami and Monte-Carlo due to a shoulder injury, while he also pulled out of Madrid last month. Djokovic has an incredible record in Rome, winning the event six times in total.
They played against each other at the 2024 Australian Open, with Djokovic prevailing in four sets. He will need a few games to get up to speed, and Prizmic should be able to test him at times.
