Novak Djokovic vs Taylor Fritz Tips & Live Stream

Taylor Fritz hammered David Goffin 6-3 6-4 in a routine win for the 26-year-old in the last round. 

Head To Head


The pair have met nine times in total, with Djokovic winning all nine matches in a stunning run of results.

Novak Djokovic Form


Novak Djokovic has been far from perfect this year, but he looks to be ending the campaign in form after winning his four Shanghai outings and moving into the semi-finals. 

With an Olympic gold medal in his pocket following the games in Paris, Djokovic will want to help expel the memories of his third round exit from the US Open in August by securing the trophy in Shanghai this week. 

With a 9-0 record against Fritz, history is on the side of Djokovic. As mentioned, 2024 has been far from perfect for Djokovic, but he looks in great touch right now as he eyes his 36th win of the season. 

Taylor Fritz Form 


Taylor Fritz was far too good for David Goffin in the quarter-finals as he beat his opponent in straight-sets to setup a shot against an opponent that has dominated him for years. 

With the exception of matches at the Australia Open in 2021 and 2024, Fritz has failed to win a single set against Djokovic in seven attempts. Clearly, Djokovic has been far too good each time the pair have met. 

While Fritz will be desperate to finally end his losing run against Djokovic in what may be one of their final few meetings, I cannot see him beating his opponent, and I simply see their head to head stating Djokovic is 10-0 up following this clash.
