Djokovic vs Bedene: prediction for the Roland Garros match
Novak Djokovic and Aljaz Bedene clash against each other in the 3rd round of the French Open on May 27. Does the Slovenian athlete have a chance? Here's our prediction.

Command Analysis

Novak Djokovic

Novak Djokovic played confidently in his two opening matches at the current Roland Garros. In the first round, the Serbian tennis player prevailed over Yoshihito Nishioka (6-3, 6-1, 6-0), and in the second round, he outplayed Alex Molcan (6-2, 6-3, 7-6). We remind you, that Djokovic won the French Open last year. In 2021, he defeated Rafael Nadal (3-6, 6-3, 7-6, 6-2) in the semifinals and then beat Stefanos Tsitsipas (6-7, 2-6, 6-3, 6-2, 6-4) in the final.

Aljaz Bedene

Reaching the third round of the French Open is a great achievement for Aljaz Bedene. He has recently recovered from an injury - before the injury, the Slovenian tennis player had just one victory in five matches. Nevertheless, in the opening matches at Roland Garros, Bedene celebrated success over Christopher O'Connell (6-2, 6-4, 6-7, 6-1) and Pablo Cuevas (4-6, 6-4, 7-6, 6-4).
Trends
СтавкаTie-break - yes
Djokovic played 3 tie-breaks in his last 5 matches.

Ставка1st set: total over 9.5 games
In 3 of Bedene's last 5 matches, more than 9 games were played in the first set.

Tip and bets
Djokovic clearly is intent to win his 21st Grand Slam title. He has quite an easy part of the bracket and should have no problems before he reaches the quarterfinals at least. Bedene recently returned to playing after an arm injury, and we doubt he will be able to put up a fight against Djokovic
Our prediction - handicap (-10) to Djokovic
Djokovic won both of his matches here in straight sets. Bedene isn't much stronger than Nishioka or Molcan, and we don't think he will be able to last against the World №1 longer than them.
Second bet - total under 28 games
