Matches of the Day: Wimbledon 2012, R4 Day7

After a great 1st week of wimbledon, we move to the round of 16. Who is the "in-form" player coming into the 2nd week? Its hard to say as I don't think there is anyone left who hasn't even dropped a set. Fed looked sublime in the 1st 2 matches, but needed all his experience and mental toughness to see of an inspired Bennetau. Djo has looked solid as usual, but dropped a set against Stepanek. Murray has played his usual tennis and is now into the 4th round to face Cilic who fought a marathon against Querry. This mid sunday will be a good relief for none more than Cilic.

So lets see what we have in store as the 1st day of the 2nd week kicks off.

1.Roger Federer (SUI)[3]
v
Xavier Malisse (BEL)

Fed should see this off without losing a set or perhaps his serve as well. But it has a little chance to get interesting, Malisse is no pushover.

2. Novak Djokovic (SRB)[1]
v
Viktor Troicki (SRB)

Well .. If Djo goes 0-6 0-6 0-5 0-40 down and Troicki serving for the match, I still won't put a penny on Troicki to win this,

3. Marin Cilic (CRO)[16]
v
Andy Murray (GBR)[4]

Murray's first game on court-1. Cilic played a tough 5 setter against Querry, but should have won it in 3 or worst 4. Baggy couldn't win, so Murray did it. I don't know who will win, but its all going to be 'tactical'. Cilic will make or break it, its all about him in this match.

4. David Ferrer (ESP)[7]
v
Juan Martin Del Potro (ARG)[9]

A tough match for delpo. the last time they met, Ferrer wiped the floor with him . But on grass Delpo might have a better chance. Tennis wise Delpo is miles ahead, but what Ferrer lacks in game, he can make that up with his stamina, determination. Its the match of the day for me.
