Djokovic vs Schwartzman: prediction for the Roland Garros match
Novak Djokovic and Diego Schwartzman face off in the Round of 16 at the 2022 French Open. Who will progress to the quarterfinals? Here's our prediction.

Command Analysis

Novak Djokovic

Novak Djokovic had a slow start to the 2022 tour and won his first trophy only in May - the Serbian tennis player celebrated success at the Italian Open. This is not a very impressive performance for the World №1. Djokovic will strive to win his 21st Grand Slam title and silence the critics. So far, he has had an easy run in the French capital and defeated Nishioka, Molcan, and Bedene in straight sets.

Diego Schwartzman

Diego Schwartzman has been inconsistent since the start of the season and hasn't won any tournaments yet. Despite all his setbacks, Schwartzman is demonstrating confident performance at the current French Open. The Argentine needed five sets to overcome Jaume Munar, but Grigor Dimitrov and Andrey Kuznetsov were defeated in straight sets.
