The tennis legend, Novak Djokovic, eyes yet another crown as he takes on Nuno Borges in the quarterfinal of the Athens Open. They haven't clashed in the past, but we're pretty certain about how this game will end. Check our Novak Djokovic vs Nuno Borges match prediction below.

Our money is on Novak Djokovic to beat Nuno Borges, but how he does so is equally as important. Specifically, we're backing Djokovic to win in two sets, just as he has done consistently in recent games. Looking at the win-loss record, it's no surprise that Djokovic surpasses Borges.

Of his last 26 singles, Djokovic has now won 22. And interestingly, that run saw him reach the semifinals of all the tournaments he played, so we're not expecting a quarterfinal exit in this one. Now, in his last two three-set singles, both ended in two sets.

Then, over those 24 wins, 11 were in straight sets, which is particularly impressive as 15 of those games were five-set games. On the other end, 12 of Borges' last 20 singles were losses, and more importantly, half of those defeats came in straight sets.
