Novak Djokovic vs Jaime Faria Prediction

Seventh seed Novak Djokovic had a tough first-round match against talented youngster Nishesh Basavareddy but after losing the first set, he reeled off the next three to progress.

He now faces another talented youngster in Jaime Faria and he will want to avoid being on court any longer than necessary in this one.

Faria has come through four rounds to reach this stage including qualifying the 21-year-old will be flying with confidence ahead of this clash with arguably the greatest player ever.

Faria beat Pavel Kotov in the last round but this will be a completely different ball game. Djokovic will let the youngster enjoy his moment but expect him to wrap this up in three sets.
