Who plays RLA Sunday and Tuesday nights?

[Oceans II]

Sunday:
Djokovic vs Mannarino or homeboy De Minaur vs seemingly Rublev?
Djokovic already 3 RLA nights in a row. Mannarino not the biggest draw unlike a Djokovic vs Shelton match. De Minaur and Rublev both top 10, similar styles and should be a close match. Tennis Australia would surely want De Minaur to have at least one RLA night match and what better time than Sunday night.

Tuesday:
Djokovic vs Tsitsipas. Surely RLA night given the names and last year's final. Djokovic vs Fritz??? De Minaur vs Sinner???

Obviously forget about it if Mannarino beats Djokovic which could easily happen.

Discuss.

So Djokovic vs Mannarino during the day and De Minaur vs Rublev at night.

Thoughts on these scenarios for Tuesday, who plays when?

Djokovic vs Tsitsipas, De Minaur vs Sinner
Djokovic vs Fritz, De Minaur vs Sinner
Djokovic vs Fritz, De Minaur vs Khachanov
Djokovic vs Fritz, Sinner vs Rublev

Obviously Mannarino could defeat Djokovic.

Thank you!

DeMinaur vs Sinner will be the night match. Consider the local hero who got the night match today also.

Djokovic is not going to be lobbying hard for night matches as the weather is not too hot. If anything, he can hit more service winners and shorten points better this year in the daytime since the night conditions are not lively at all. I wouldn’t be surprised if he specifically asked for a day match against Mannarino who can only counterpunch and not outhit him in daytime heat.

Thank you for the reply. I probably can't buy tickets at this stage then. May need to wait after tomorrow night's match. They can't possibly put Rublev vs Sinner at night over last year's final???
Apologies for the selfishness.

Attend both sessions. A lot of top players left on that side of the draw.

Anyone knows why there is no WTA match tomorrow after Rublev/Deminaur? No NS for women? Why?

Even if there is not much difference in temperature, the sun makes the ball more lively compared to night. Djokovic will hit more winners in the daytime against Mannarino including on serve.

I don't understand. You want a day or night match?... whatever happens, ND the best to adapt..
