Our Novak Djokovic vs Alex De Minaur Prediction
The Difference Maker: Apart from Djokovic’s historic 33-0 record in Beijing, Djokovic proved he still has enough gas left in him to beat top-10 players on consecutive days. Djokovic hacked out a three-set win over two-time Grand Slam winner Alexander Zverev, 4-6, 6-4, 6-4, and followed it up with a masterclass against Medvedev.
De Minaur has had an easier draw, beating Mariano Navone 7-6, 6-2, Quentin Halys 3-6, 7-6, 7-5, Andrey Rublev 1-6, 6-2, 6-3 and Hurkacz. De Minaur has not beaten a top-10 player on his way to the finals.
What to Expect: There’s no stopping Djokovic from winning his 7th China Open title. Djokovic, who has yet to drop a set against De Minaur on hard courts, has rediscovered his elite form after two grueling matches with Zverev and Medvedev. De Minaur will have his moments, but Djokovic will not allow this title to slip away. Nole will win this one in straight sets.
Fearless Forecast: Novak Djokovic wins 6-4, 7-6
