I'm taking Federer in this match. I haven't bet too much this slam but here is a good spot. I honestly feel like Federer will dispose of Nadal in straight sets. Nadal's serve hasn't been impressive thus far and Federer is putting the ball wherever he wants. I definitely see serving out wide on the left box giving Nadal some problems recovering for the rest of that point.
Nadal has Fed's number in slams but most of those are on clay. Besides they haven't met in a slam in awhile. Federer is in his prime right now. This last 6 months is the best tennis he's ever played in his career. The only thing that would worry me is if he can go the distance, but I think this will be a 3-4 set match.
Nadal was really good against Berdych in the last round, but that wasn't the old Nadal. He's just lost a half a step. He's not ready to beat Federer right now.
