Novak Djokovic – Rafael Nadal
The final in the men’s tournament looks set to be a gripping match with Nadal looking to reclaim the throne in Melbourne and end his title draught, while Djokovic will be most eager to defend his title from last year.
I dare not venture into any prediction into who’s going to win the match, I simply find it too risky, even though Djokovic has won their last 6 encounters. but after his massive match against Murray, how much is left in the tank if the match goes down to the wire?
I think both of them will be good enough to claim at least 1 set, so one could opt for the bet of more than 3.5 sets, but the odds are pretty slim, so I’m taking a shot at there being exactly 4 sets in the match.
They have never played a 5-setter but the last 3 times they have met in a Grand Slam-tournament, all of the finals by the way, there has been 4 sets in the match.
