Novak Djokovic will open his Madrid campaign against the French maestro and an absolute entertainer Gael Monfils. He would like to return to his winning ways with a slightly easier matchup against Monfils. Djokovic has not performed well this year except for his fighting performance in tennis where he won all of his matches in three sets before falling to Andrey Rublev in the finals. Monfils would love to upset the world number 1 and get a win and move on with his campaign.

Monfils is also returning from an injury and faces a tough match against Djokovic, an opponent he has never defeated in his ATP matches. But, he has also shown great form to win the opening round 6-3, 6-0 against Carlos Gimeno Valero, and with Novak still not being his best self, this is the time for Monfils to strike.
