Djokovic vs Tsitsipas: match preview
At long last, Stefanos Tsitsipas has broken his Australian Open curse, only to find himself confronted by Novak Djokovic in the final. The Serb, who's won a staggering 27 matches in a row at Melbourne Park, not to mention a record haul of nine championships, has been the scourge of Tsitsipas' career, but the Greek star will be driven by the support of the vast majority of the fans at Rod Laver Arena as he sets about securing that long-overdue maiden grand slam title.
Djokovic leads their head-to-head by 10-2, but what's especially notable is that he's faced Tsitsipas in five finals – and won them all. The most famous of these was, of course, the epic at Roland Garros two years ago, in which Djokovic completed a sensational comeback from two sets down. In midweek, the 35-year-old forgot that Tsitsipas was on the receiving end of that particular triumph, and though it was an innocent slip-up, the admission would certainly have stung the fiery Greek.
The 24-year-old has been a captivating presence in Melbourne, his elegant, swashbuckling style winning over plenty of new admirers in a place where he's always been popular. Blur your eyes and you might think you were watching Federer in action, and is there a higher compliment than that? Djokovic, however, is a byword for inevitable, especially at this slam. A 10th championship would not only extend his Aussie Open record, but also pull him level with Nadal on 22 grand slam titles. As Djokovic himself has said, that's all the incentive he'll ever need.
Nobody has come close to earning the 35 break points that Djokovic has racked up over the course of the tournament. However, Tsitsipas has displayed uncanny powers of escape, saving 44 of the 53 break points he's had to face.
