Novak Djokovic is seeded No.7 in the tournament and will aim to end the year on a high after missing out on several high-profile tournaments. The Serbian missed the Australian Open, the US Open, and a couple of Masters 1000 events because of his stance on Covid-19 vaccination. His biggest triumph this year came at Wimbledon, where he won his 21st Grand Slam title.

Head-to-head and Predictions

Djokovic and Tsitsipas have faced each other eleven times before on the ATP tour. The Serbian has an over-whelming record, leading 9-2 on head to head. In 2022, there have been three matches between both players, with Djokovic coming out on top on all three occasions. We are expecting a close affair this time around, but Djokovic should win it in three sets.
