Are you ready to stay up for the Novak Djokovic vs Kei Nishikori live stream? For the first time in a while, the odds on favorite is playing against someone who’s beaten him in the past. Yes, fresh off him Wimbledon 2021 win, Djokovic is taking on the World’s No. 69th ranked tennis player, Kei Nishikori.
Nishikori’s wins over Djokovic aren’t recent, though, coming back in 2014 (U.S. Open) and 2011 (Basel). And excluding those matches, Djokovic’s won a whopping 16 of their meetings. All the way from France to Canada, from Florida to Spain and from Australia to New York. So, safe to say, experts are picking him to win (again).
And it’s hard to think Djokovic wins this Tokyo Olympics tennis match in anything more than two sets. Especially when the Serbian Ace just dispatched Spain’s Alejandro Davidovich Fokina, the World’s No. 34-ranked men’s tennis player, in two sets, 6-3, 61.
At the Tokyo Olympics, Nishikori’s beaten Andrey Rublev in straight sets, followed by a win over Marcos Giron (in three sets) and another straight-sets win over Ilya Ivashka. We’re not telling Djokovic to take his opponent lightly, we’re just saying it doesn’t seem like he will lose.
Djokovic hasn’t lost a match since May (against Rafael Nadal). And since Rafa is out, one looks back to the previous instance of anyone beating Djokovic — Aslan Karatsev — in April of this year.
