Top seed Novak Djokovic has a grand opportunity to add a third Madrid crown to his illustrious resume as he takes on the eighth seed and fast-rising Stefanos Tsitsipas in the final at the Spanish capital on Sunday. The name of the 20-year-old Greek in the final is a surprise as many had expected Rafael Nadal to set up a blockbuster summit showdown with his great rival at home.

However, just like it was evident at Monte Carlo and Barcelona, the 11-time French Open winner has still not reached his imperious best on the red dirt this season and continues to struggle with confidence issues. Tsitsipas, on the other hand, remained poised and aggressive even after being blown out by Nadal in the second set of his semi-final.

He refused to back off from his attacking play even in the decider as he earned his first ever victory over the World No. 2. One thing that stood out from his performance against Nadal was how brilliantly he managed to stay in rallies with the clay supremo. The highly-improved defense would come in handy against someone like Djokovic who has dogged resistance.

An earlier win over the 15-time Grand Slam winner at Toronto last year could also inspire the young Greek to give his very best against one of the legends of the game. However, even though the Serb hasn't yet reached his peak form on clay this year, he did manage to lift his game on the clutch moments against someone as stubborn as Dominic Thiem in their last-four clash on Saturday. And that is an ominous sign for anyone facing Djokovic on the opposite side of the net.
