Novak Djokovic and Taylor Fritz third-place prediction, betting tips & odds, head-to-head, preview: Six Kings Slam 2025

Djokovic boasts a flawless record against Fritz, with a stunning 11-0 lead.
It will be a Novak Djokovic vs Taylor Fritz battle for the third place at the Six Kings Slam 2025 on October 18, Saturday.
Novak Djokovic’s struggles against Jannik Sinner continued in Riyadh, where the Italian handed him a straight-sets defeat, 6-4, 6-2, in the semifinals.
The 38-year-old Serbian legend looked out of rhythm against Sinner’s relentless baseline power and quick transitions, unable to find answers in the fast-paced format.
It marked the Serbian’s sixth consecutive loss to the World No. 2, deepening questions about his adaptability against the younger generation. After the match, Djokovic candidly admitted that Sinner “kicked my a***,” acknowledging the Italian’s dominance.
Fritz too, was at the recieving end of a similar thrashing. Against the Spaniard, his incosistency cost him big time, as the American was unable to convert the chances which came his way.
