Novak Djokovic's next match: Opponent, venue, live streaming, TV channel, and schedule | Western & Southern Open, 2R

Novak Djokovic will face Alejandro Davidovich Fokina in the second round of the Western & Southern Open in Cincinnati. It will be the fifth meeting between the two, with the Serb leading 3-1 in the head-to-head.

The Masters 1000 event will be Djokovic's first tournament since his Wimbledon final loss to Carlos Alcaraz. He is the second seed and thus, received a bye to the second round. Here, the Serb will be up against Davidovich Fokina, who beat Tomas Martin Etcheverry in the opening round.

Djokovic has a 15-1 record on hard courts so far this season, winning the Australian Open and the Adelaide International 1. He will enter the match as the favorite to win but Davidovich Fokina's chances should not be written off as he is quite a formidable competitor on his day. He had reached the semifinals of the Canadian Open last week.
