10:30 Philipp Kohlschreiber vs Nikolay Davydenko
Philipp Kohlschreiber (To Win Match) @ 3
You got to dislike davydenko, they guy is involved in a Betfair scandel, conteversy surround him. Another thing that annoyed me is he retired be fedderrer sunday in estoril final when it was obvious he no longer had a chance to win, people had come to watch tennis, but no he retired yet is fine and dandy to go again the next day. Khlschreiber impressed me with the manner of his defeat of Kiefer, and i think 2/1 here could be something to back.

12:00 Tommy Robredo vs David Nalbandian
Tommy Robredo (To Win Match) @ 2.8
Yes tommy has not had the best of season, while david has got out of traps flying, but this is clay and robredo put up an excellent show yesterday to beat soderling a good win i would think and im happy with 9/5, robredo beat david here 2years ago, it will be close but il chance robredo.

Im no tennis expert but why is Nalbandian favourite to beat Roger Federer? i just noticed Federer is available at evens so does he have an injury or something?

matt
I have backed fedv myself as i think he has settled on clay and just had a poor game two games back. Nalbandian has also had a brillant season so far and does look somewhat like the play that was no3 in world, hes done well v fed b4 and hes in fine form, but fed evens just tempts me.

a lot has been made of federer's dodgy recent form this season, but i think that his comeback against ramirez hidalgo is the turning point of his season.

Nalbandian has a relatively good record against Federer but it can hardly be said that he has Fed's number.

I feel that Federer will turn it on today, and at best I think you could argue a 50/50 chance for Bandy, so I'm siding with the value...amazingly, this means backing Federer at odds-against!

Davedenko v Andreev is possible the worst game of tennis I have seen in years. Both are awful.

As for the Fed game I am going for 2-1 Federer in sets at crazy 4's. I think the win against Monfils was enough to suggest that the old Fed could be back and that will give him confidence no end. Nalbandian is no mug but I think Federer will just edge this one.

The way federer came back against hidalgo shows why he is such a TRUE GREAT and he was on form against monfils. I know he hasn't had the best of season starts but i am definently backing fed to beat nalbandian at evens, if odds were lower i'd be more hesitant but this is great value for possibly the greatest of all time tennis player.

Cant wait for the match.

COME ON FEDEX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Win

This is possibly the most tempting bet i have ever came across. All in on fed 1st

fed very unlucky to have lost that set, is playing the better of two and serving better too, took some 2/1 on fed a set down.

absaloutely amazing tennis, both players playing outstanding tennis.

i've not been able to watch the second set but from what i've read it's been just as good and Federer is really firing now having won the second set with a double break.

Hopefully Nalbandian can keep it up to provide the same high quality exciting tennis that there's been throughout.
