Can blake do something funny like chuck a Gonzalez (like in Masters cup). Probably not. When gonzalez beat fed it was such a surprise. Blake has no pressure.

This could actually be more complicated than what people expect it to be, but the result is never in doubt.

I agree, That's no fun to watch this two.

I hate the game like this. You already knew the result.

7-6 6-3 6-0. Game Over

Blake will come out firing as usual and force a tiebreaker, Fed wins it 7-4. Then Fed issues a bakery product in 2nd set. Then 6-3 in the 3rd.

7-6(7-4), 6-1, 6-3

Never in doubt.

Despite the fact that Blake is playing great and Fed is shaky, I'll go with Ego King in three tight sets with two TBs and one set 6-4.

poor blake will got killed in 3 straight sets, and will get less than 10 games :p

The challenge king will win in three, Blake hits the ball exactly to Roger's strike zone, it's too comfortable a match up for Roger, especially on that surface which takes the slice very well and will force Blake to hit up. There could be a love set if Roger's on another serving rush and Blake decides to play " who can whack a first serve the hardest"

James will miss all his chances in tiebreaks like Berdych!
But I hope it will be james's day!!!

Roger will win this easily, maybe one close set but just the one. The other two will be practice sets for Roger. And then James will gush about what an honor it was to share a court with him.

Fed will win, probably in 3, but Blake may make one set competitive.

Even though one-sided, Blake v Fed matches are normally good. Blake hits balls at just the right height for Roger so we normally see him at his tip top best :)

I expect to see Blake come out firing, full of life, energy, purpose and determination.

Within 4 or 5 games his shoulders will be sagging and for humanitarian reasons they should probably stop the match there, like they do in boxing.

However, since they don't, Federer in 3 pretty quick sets is my expectation.

I wonder if we'll just see a handshake or whether they'll incorporate a kiss as well. You just know that Blake will be thinking of heavy petting Roger about five or six games into the match. I expect this will through him completely off his game.

Not chance that Blake can beat Federer.

If Blake play defense to surprise Roger, I would get back to my Screen.

ALL I want him to do is to play defense and wait for a chance to hit the clear winner.

Focus and play defense, has to be patience, Do not rush to hit return.

Good luck to James
