MARTIN BUREAU / AFP

Novak Djokovic will play Denis Shapovalov in the finals of the Paris Masters.

It comes after Rafael Nadal withdrew from the tournament because of injury.

The second seed was forced to pull out with an abdominal strain shortly before his final-four matchup against Canada's Shapovalov.

Play from the French capital is expected to get underway at 6:00 pm UAE time.
