Novak Djokovic vs Nal prediction

This will be one of most difficult games to predict this season. While all stats point to a relatively simple for Rafael Nal, fact remains that Djokovic will not go down easy. After last year's humiliating defeat, World No.1 will fight to keep his place at top of ATP rankings and give himself best chance to win this match. Also different from last year's final will be fact that Djokovic will come into this match well-rested and with no excuses for a b performance. However, even at his best, we predict that Serb will not be able to take more than a set off Nal as he cruises to a victory.
