In the second set, Novak Djokovic was much stronger. He lost only three points in five service games and for sure did not give his rival a break point opportunity. No. 1 received four break points in three sets, but was lucky to convert only one of them.

In the first game of the first set, the Serb reached a 40-30 score and converted one out of three break points. After a 2-1 score in his favor, he won three games in a row to create a four-game lead and did not let Norrie close the gap in the remaining games.

Nick Kyrgios had a rest on semi-finals day, because Rafael Nadal withdrew from the tournament due to a muscle injury.

He had a hard start in the 2022 Wimbledon. Kyrgios met No. 216 Paul Jubb (3-6, 6-1, 7-5, 6-7, 7-5) in the first stage and was close to being eliminated. Break points were his keys to victory. Kyrgios saved 85% out of 13 break points and converted 83% of his opportunities.

In the 1/32 finals, he did not leave Filip Krajinovic (6-2, 6-3, 6-1) a chance. Nick Kyrgios won 84% of service points and received 15 break points. He did not give his rival a break point opportunity and made only one double fault.

In the 1/16 finals, the Australian tennis player faced Stefanos Tsitsipas (6-7, 6-4, 6-3, 7-6). Overall, Kyrgios did not do anything unusual, he just was a bit stronger that time. He won all service games and 73% of service points. Kyrgios saved all five break points and converted two out of 14 break point opportunities.

He met Brandon Nakashima (4-6, 6-4, 7-6, 3-6, 6-2) and was one step away from being eliminated in the Round of 16. The tennis players were equal. They saved and converted an absolutely equal number of break points. The game was decided in tie-breaks, of the third set.

Nick Kyrgios has won the second set in five of the last six matches. He is priced with the odds of 2.75 (+175; 7/4) to beat Novak Djokovic in the first set.

Novak Djokovic vs Nick Kyrgios H2H

Nick Kyrgios pulled Novak Djokovic (6-4, 7-6) down in the 1/8 final of the 2017 ATP Indian Wells. In the first set, he received one breakpoint in three sets each, but converted only one of them. Also, he did not give Djokovic break point opportunities in this set.

Novak Djokovic vs Nick Kyrgios predictions and betting tips

Novak Djokovic played well in his semi-final. He failed the first set, but was absolutely undefeatable in the remaining three. He did not give his rival break points in these three sets and won approximately 82% of service points. In this tournament, he met Jannik Sinner and Miomir Kecmanovic, who are in good shape now.

Nick Kyrgios was strong in this tournament, but his performance was so unstable. He gave many chances to much weaker rivals and twice was a step away from defeat. I believe his current form is not enough to beat Novak Djokovic in the Grand Slam final, but we could see a close game in four sets. Nick Kyrgios has been defeated to nil in only one of the last 16 matches and has won a set or more in the last six matches against greater ranked rivals.
