Novak Djokovic vs Cristian Garin Prediction:
Pick: Djokovic to win in straight sets
Novak Djokovic will enter the court as the top favorite following his Tel Aviv Open title win. He has previous experience of beating the opponent twice. The World No. 7 has a longer period of experience in the professional career compared to the 26-year-old who turned pro in 2011. With his strong forehand, Garin will try to keep Djokovic behind the baseline. He will aim for an early lead in the game. However, Djokovic has always been a patient player and is expected to pick an easy win in straight sets on Wednesday.
