Novak Djokovic vs. Dino Prizmic: Match Preview

World No. 1 Djokovic kicked off his 2024 campaign with his maiden participation in the United Cup, where he led his home team, Serbia, to secure the quarterfinal spot in the event. 

However, despite much show of force, the Serb suffered a shock straight-set defeat at the hands of Alex de Minaur with a concluding scoreline of 6-4, 6-4.

To make matters worse, Nole’s compatriot Natalija Stevanovic lost the women’s singles rubber to Australia’s Ajla Tomljanovic, ending Serbia’s run in the event.

Dino Prizmic, on the other hand, has been relatively unknown up until this point. The young Czech’s nascent career kicked off after he bagged the boy’s singles title at the 2023 French Open after downing Juan Carlos Prado Angelo in the summit clash of the event.

Furthermore, Prizmic captured another title on the Challenger circuit in August 2023. 

Novak Djokovic vs. Dino Prizmic: Match Prediction

Djokovic and Prizmic will square off in the first round of the 2024 Australian Open for the first time. Owing to the Serb’s on-court supremacy and formidable form, it is anticipated that he will prevail over Prizmic during their clash at Melbourne Park.

However, it is worth noting that the 36-year-old might encounter a wrist concern, which comes into play following his candid admission after getting stunned by Minaur at the United Cup.

Despite such injury concerns, the odds largely favor Djokovic, and he will enjoy being the crowd favorite at the Rod Laver Arena. 

Furthermore, Prizmic is scheduled to make his maiden Grand Slam appearance at the Australian Open this season, potentially resulting in the pressure getting to him during his first-round clash against Nole.

Prediction: Djokovic to win in straight sets.
