Ferrer's game caters around exposing the weaker shot of his opponent, which generally tends to be their backhand, by going inside out forehand all day longer with lots of margin for error and deep 3/4 length to the baseline. Wawrinka's backhand is his strength, it's the best single hander on tour and one of the best overall.
I do not believe Ferrer wins this matchup when Wawrinka is in full flow and playing well. Especially since Stan elevated his game to another level last season, never-the-less........ we've seen Stan is only bringing his game to certain level events and with the fact he hasn't played since the o2, I don't feel he is the sort to get right back into his stride.
Ferrer is the consumate professional and will be giving max effort, with no question about it. Wawrinka you feel will not exactly be drawing blood to get the W here, especially with it being an exhibition event.
