Djokovic, who is bidding to become only the third male player to win all four Grand Slams twice, leads the head-to-head against Nadal 29-26 and is one of just two players to have defeated the Spaniard on the Parisian clay. Victory on Sunday would give Djokovic an 18th Grand Slam, leaving him one behind Nadal and two shy of Roger Federer.2019 French Open performance: WinnerSecond round: Mackenzie McDonald 6-1 6-0 6-3Quarter-finals: Jannik Sinner 7-6 6-4 6-1Nadal marched into his 13th French Open final by defeating Schwartzman in straight sets. The Spaniard has not dropped a set en route to the final -- a feat he last achieved in 2017.

The world number two has beaten Djokovic in six of their seven clashes at Roland Garros, including the 2012 and 2014 finals, but lost their most recent meeting in the 2015 quarter-finals. A victory for Nadal would improve his win-loss record at Roland Garros to 100-2 and ensure a record-equalling 20th Grand Slam title.2019 Nadal d Djokovic 6-0 4-6 6-1 2018 Nadal d Djokovic 7-6 6-3
