The final day of men's third-round action at Roland Garros takes place on Saturday, May 31, and I have French Open prediction and picks for two matches: Joao Fonseca vs Jack Draper and Filip Misolic vs Novak Djokovic.
Continue below to find my Fonseca vs Draper and Misolic vs Djokovic predictions, plus a parlay of my two picks.

Filip Misolic has been a pleasant surprise through two rounds of the French Open. Despite ranking outside the top 150, Misolic won three qualifying matches, beat Yunchaokete Bu in the first round and stunned Denis Shapovalov in Round 2.
At just 23 years old and with limited Grand Slam experience (1-1 in his career in main draw matches), this is the perfect spot to fade Misolic. He's coming off the massive high of the biggest win of his career and now must take on Novak Djokovic in a night match on Philippe Chatrier.
Plus, Misolic just played five sets — his first ever five-setter of his professional career.
While the opening set could be a feeling out process since these two haven't played each other, I ultimately believe Djokovic will cruise to an easy three-set victory.
Pick: Under 30.5 (-112 via BetRivers)
Fonseca vs Draper Odds
Joao Fonseca Odds | +172 |
Jack Draper Odds | -210 |
Over/Under | 38.5 (-116 / -116) |

Joao Fonseca, the 18-year-old sensation, hasn't dropped a set through the first two rounds of the French Open. But now the Brazilian takes a step up in weight class against Jack Draper, who outlasted Gael Monfils in his second-round duel.
In their lone career head-to-head meeting, Draper cruised past Fonseca earlier this year in Indian Wells. The Brit bageled Fonseca in the final set, but that match was on a hard court, where Fonseca isn't as comfortable.
On clay, this sets up as Fonseca's best chance early in his career to make a serious run at a Grand Slam, and his form backs that up.
If he returns as well as he did against Hubert Hurkacz, I believe Fonseca — despite his youth — has a strong chance to pull this upset based on his fitness level, ball striking and crowd advantage.
I feel more comfortable taking the over, though, as I expect this to be a long four-set or potentially five-set match. Remember, Draper is still having one of the best seasons on tour in 2025.
Pick: Over 38.5 (-110 via DraftKings)
