Djere and Medjedovic are on the Day 6 Schedule at Belgrade Open 2024 on Friday 8 November 2024. Lets breakdown the career, past stats and recent form of these players and predict who will get the victory.
Who Will Win In This Head-To-Head?
Laslo Djere and Hamad Medjedovic have faced each other twice before, with the series tied at 1-1. Their first encounter took place in Belgrade on clay, with Djere winning 6-4 7-5. The second meeting was in Astana on hard court, and Medjedovic emerged victorious with a score of 6-3 2-1 retired. The third and most recent meeting happened in Stockholm during the qualifiers, where Djere won 6-3 6-4.
Djere, aged 29, currently ranks at World No. 141, with a career-high ranking of No. 27 in June 2019. In 2024, he has a win-loss record of 10-16, reaching the semifinals in Belgrade. Throughout his career, Djere has achieved a record of 142-149 and has won two titles. He gained recognition in 2019 after winning his first ATP Tour title at Rio de Janeiro without dropping a set, which propelled him into the Top 30. Djere dedicated the Rio title to his parents, Caba and Hajnalka, who both passed away from cancer. He also secured his second title at the 2020 Sardinia tournament, defeating his compatriot, Lajovic. Despite having a relatively poor record on hard courts (15-44) and tiebreakers (1-18 in 2022), Djere surprisingly made it to the final of the 2022 Winston-Salem event, earning five victories and winning five tiebreaks along the way. He achieved his biggest career win on hard courts by upsetting World No. 3 Ruud at the 2023 Auckland tournament.
The Belgrade Arena will host the current match between Djere and Medjedovic from October 3rd to October 9th, 2024. Djere aims to reach his 6th ATP Tour final, his first on indoor hard courts since the 2023 Hamburg tournament where he lost to Zverev. If he succeeds, he will become the second Serbian player to reach an ATP Tour final on home soil after Djokovic, who has achieved this feat four times, winning three of those finals.

Medjedovic, aged 21, holds a current ranking of World No. 156, with a career-high ranking of No. 102 in October 2023. He broke into the Top 200 in March 2023 and made it to his second ATP Tour semifinal in Astana. One of his notable achievements was qualifying for the 2023 Gstaad tournament, where he upset the 2015 champion, Thiem, to reach his first ATP Tour semifinal. Medjedovic made his ATP Tour debut at the 2021 Belgrade-2 tournament and secured his first tour-level win at the 2023 Davis Cup against Durasovic. He has also qualified for the main draws of Grand Slam tournaments such as Roland Garros in 2023 and 2024, Wimbledon in 2023, and the US Open in 2024. In the Challenger circuit, Medjedovic has a record of 44-30, with four wins in finals. He became the third Serbian teenager, alongside Djokovic and Tipsarevic, to win three Challenger titles, which he accomplished at the 2022 Luedenscheid, 2023 Szekesfehervar, and 2023 Mauthausen tournaments. In his junior career, he reached a career-high ranking of No. 9 after winning titles at the 2019 Berlin Grade 1 and 2019 New Delhi Grade 2 without dropping a set.
Medjedovic aims to reach his first ATP Tour final after equalling his biggest career win by defeating No. 29 Cerundolo. He currently holds a record of 0-2 in semifinals, and if he succeeds, he would become the third youngest Serbian player to reach his first ATP Tour final, following Djokovic at 19 years old in 2006 Amersfoort and Kecmanovic at 19 years old in 2019 Antalya.
These two players are competing for a spot in the singles final at the Belgrade tournament.
