This is the 44th meeting between these two. Nadal leads their FedEx ATP Head2Head series 23-20, but Djokovic has won five of their past six matches. Nadal's only win in that stretch was here in the final last year. The Spaniard's career record in best-of-five-set matches on clay is 93-1, with the one loss coming here in 2009 to Robin Soderling.
