1. Round at the Dubai Open

Well, I got to take this. The value is on Lopez to win, as I expect a 50-50 game, but I´ll take the safer option. Why ?

Tipsarevic is the master of Overs. Just check the results in 2008:

Tipsarevic vs. Ventura 3-6,6-3,6-4

Sirianni 7-5,6-2,6-7,0-6,6-0

Verdasco 7-5,7-6,7-6

Federer 7-6,6-7,7-5,1-6,8-10

Youzhny 7-6,6-4

Simon 6-7,6-7

Zverev 6-3,6-1

Karanusic 6-3,6-7,6-4

Stakhovsky 6-3,4-6,2-6

10 tie-breaks in 9 games, overall 7 over and 2 under, and today he has a pretty equal opponent, I rate Tipsarevic as the slightly better player, but it will be not easy to cope with Lopez´ left-handed serves. They played last year in New Heaven, Lopez won 7-6,7-6, today I expect something similar, but in 3 sets.

Good luck!
