The former world number one and multiple Grand Slam winner Novak Djokovic will be back in action on Wednesday. Now ranked at number 12 in the world, Djokovic, who won this event back in 2009, will play his first match in a while. He'll be up against Ugo Humbert, who has played more recently.
Gone are the days when a Novak Djokovic win in a match of this nature was a given. The Serbian veteran has struggled with injury of late, while he's clearly not the player he was. Having not played for three weeks, he may be a little rusty here in terms of match readiness, so it really would not be a shock to us if someone as decent as Ugo Humbert made life very tough for the man often referred to by many as the greatest to ever grace the court.

Our Novak Djokovic vs Ugo Humbert Prediction
Right nowm it's hard to know what to expect from Novak Djokovic. We know that he'll have prepared as well as he possibly can and we know that he still has the technical ability to hurt even the top players, but he doesn't have the aging process cannot be slowed and he no longer has the same levels of stamina that used to see him pound players into submission.
Ugo Humbert has a clear fitness and preparation edge and given that he hasn't lost any of his last four in straight sets, with Djokovic winning none of his last three completed matches in straight sets, the Frenchman deserves more respect in the betting.
Our Novak Djokovic vs Ugo Humbert Pick: Ugo Humbert +1.5 Set Handicap.
