Djokovic has beaten Anderson in five of their six encounters and hence, the latter will push hard to win his first title.

Eight seed Anderson took six hours and 36 minutes to beat John Isner while 12th seed Djokovic stretched his match with Nadal for 5 hours and 15 minutes.
Djokovic was former No. 1 in ATP rankings for 223 weeks and this will be his 13th Grand Slam title if he wins.
