Andy Murray vs Alejandro Davidovich Fokina prediction

With both players producing some promising performances this season, we might just have a thrilling encounter on our hands. Murray is solid in defense but can switch to attack relatively quickly. The 35-year-old has lost a bit of pace of late and now centers his game on making as few errors as possible. His serve is still good enough to fetch him a few free points. Davidovich Fokina, on the other hand, loves to play with aggression and a sense of adventure. The young Spaniard will look to move Murray around the court with his powerful groundstrokes. He can also mix things up with his drop shot, which is among the most efficient on tour. It's hard to say who will come out on top in this match of contrasting styles. Murray's experience, however, might just see him over the line. Pick: Murray to win in three sets. Poll : Who will win the 2022 ATP finals?
