NOVAK DJOKOVIC is back on court for the first time today since his US Open Final defeat as he lines up against Fabio Fognini at the Shanghai Masters.

The top seed has taken time out to cure a wrist injury and will be fired up to land his first title since July's Rogers Cup in Toronto.

Djokovic has racked up seven straight victories over erratic Italian Fognini and is just 1-4 at Sportingbet to progress in straight sets while a Fognini win pays 13-1 at Marathonbet.

Today's other eye-catching Shanghai matches include a first-ever meeting between Olympic silver medallist Juan Martin Del Potro and world No.12 David Goffin plus Nick Kyrgious versus American slugger Sam Querrey.

There's also the likes of snooker and baseball worth a flutter today so as usual feel free to add your sporting tips and chat.

    Mitre 10 Cup

    North Harbour v Tasman (7.35 am tomorrow)

    North Harbour are all about playing at home. 18 of their 19 points have come from home ties winning their last 5 on the trot. Tasman are no mugs and sit comfortably mid table in the division above but have a patchy away form. North Harbour came close to beating the league leaders and the league leaders of the division above. I think rheir home form is too strong for Tasman.

    North Harbour +5 point spread 2.00 @ bet 365 (1pt staked)

    Noth Harbour ML 2.75 @ Bet365 (0.5 point staked)
