Novak Djokovic of Serbia will begin his quest for a record 25th Grand Slam title on Monday, taking on fellow veteran Pedro Martinez of Spain in the first round of the 2026 Australian Open.
Recommended Pick: Novak Djokovic Under 18.5 Games (+125)
Potential Payout: $225 per a $100 Bet
Current Form:
Djokovic will be making his 2026 ATP season debut in Melbourne at the Australian Open. The 24-time Grand Slam winner is a massive favorite for his first-round matchup against Martinez across major sportsbooks, with DraftKings listing him at -2400 moneyline. Djokovic captured his last ATP title in the last tournament he played in 2025 at the inaugural Hellenic Championship, where he defeated an in-form Lorenzo Musetti 4-6, 6-3, 7-5.
Similar to Djokovic, Martinez also ruled the last tournament he competed in roughly two months ago at Bengaluru, India. The 71st-ranked Martinez dropped only one set in five matches to win the ATP Challenger tournament, beating Timofey Skatov of Kazakhstan in the finals 7-6, 6-3.

Our Pedro Martinez vs Novak Djokovic Prediction
Fearless Forecast: Novak Djokovic is off to a dominant start, 6-1, 6-3, 6-4
Reason: Djokovic is well-rested and ready to go in his pursuit of another Grand Slam title. The last time Djokovic played, the Serb dominated on his way to capturing the Hellenic Championship. While he’s no longer the top betting favorite at the Australian Open, you can still expect the 24-time Grand Slam winner to outclass lowly-ranked opponents such as Portero until he gets into the elites like Alcaraz and Sinner.
