I won't agree with other tipsters that Ferrer will win easy this match. I even say he shouldn't be favorite in this match. I watched both gentleman's on court and in my opinion Ferrero is a real "Black Sheep" in this year Australian Open and Ferrer will face very hard challenge to stop Spanish Gunner. I know that Ferrer in the end of last season increased much his game on hard and fast surface but current form is always the most important issue. In my opinion Ferrer is still quite dangerous on court but he slow down a bit, that with his weak service could effect with a loss against Ferrero who is in great form and he loves to return weak balls with a speed of lighting. Maybe he played 13 matches in last days but yesterday with Nalbandian he was fresh and in full strength. He hit a lot of aces and his serve keep on same high level. I remember times when he was a good player but power in hits was a problem, now he's got a power and many of ATP players feels it. I think that Ferrer with his weak serve will be stunned by Ferrero returns and even if Ferrer is good in ball exchange he won't survive very precise and still fast corner-play. Ferrer didn't matched a good opponent in this tour and now it's time for. Del Porto was able to break him two times, and Nalbandian weren't able to do this to Ferrero. Both of them make not much unforced errors, Ferrer even a little less, but still his weaker serve is a big weakness. In Heineken Open Ferrer was out of something that help him so in the end of last season. Now he is playing good, but still in my opinion it isn't this Ferrer from US Open, or even from Shanghai Masters. Ferrero is the one who is playing his life game. Big chance for him to beat better in ranking Spaniard. I don't care about stats on surface, or h2h which is better for David. They play 2 years ago on hard twice and it was very equal, now I count that Ferrero will make another surprise and eliminate his brother in arms David Ferrer. Good Luck, mates!
