I remember their USO match, it was a hard win. This guy will be dangerous. Of course Djokovic draws him again in the first round.
Stop. RCB has done nothing since 2019 to embellish his HC accomplishments after the 4,1&4 walkover win by Djok.
 
RCB just beat Berrettini in a hard court event in October. Won a set against Cilic last week in Pune. Also won a set against Shapovalov in USO.
He is a clay specialist but he can play well on HC though. He never beats top players but you rarely beat him easily him. RCB is a slower version of RBA.

Surely not a tricky 1st round for the Djoker (if he isn't injured) but I don't expect a 6-2 6-1 6-2 win. 1 close set at least.

Djokovic can be extra careful in the first two sets.
Even a comeback from 0-2 to 3-2 is not impossible.
 
Well last time they played was in 1st rd of Uo 2019 where shoulder issues were there for Djokovic pre tournament and we know who won that tournament. Hopefully we get the deja vu:p
 
Only thing worth watching is when Novak grabs the hamstring and pulls up lame. My bet is 2nd set but it could come earlier. Either way, he’s gonna make a show of holding his hamstring at some point.

How many days off TTW during AO you willing to bet on that prediction
 
In regards to Novak's kit, I will say that because I don't have anything nice to comment, I will make no comment at all
 
The backhand and serve is always there, but when Novaks forehand is clicking - you dont want to be on on the other side....
