Before Roland Garros Djokovic warmed up well at the Masters in Rome, where he actually became a triumphant. During this major tournament, the Serb won victories over Caruso (6-3, 6-2), Krayinovic (7-6, 6-3), Koepfer (6-3, 4-6, 6-3), Ruud (7- 5, 6-3) and Schwartzman (7-5, 6-3), whom he beat in the final. It should be noted that almost all fights in Rome turned out to be difficult for the first racket of the world. Only in one of them Djokovic managed to break through odds offered to him. In the remaining four the Serb did not live up to the “expectations” of the bookmakers.
The 13-time champion and 14-time FA Cup winner managed to take only eighth position last season. The capital club recorded 14 wins and draws each, which brought 56 ??points. That’s 43 points less than the champion. The Gunners also have more modest performance in the attack line, which hit the opponents’ goal 56 times. Arsenal kicked off the new football season with a Super Cup win, after which they have never been defeated. In the 2020/21 Premier League, Mikel Arteta’s charges defeated Fulham (3:0) and West Ham (2:1), which brought the maximum result at the start of the Premier League tournament. In the League Cup, the red-whites made it to the 1/8 finals, beating Leicester away (2:0), for which we made a forecast. Of the newcomers, one cannot fail to note the strengthening of the defense line, where Gabriel from Lille came for 26 million and Pablo Marie from Flamengo (8.0 million). In the infirmary of the team are Martinelli, Mustafi, Smith Row, Chambers, Soares and Tierney. The exit of Socrates is in question.
