THE PREDICTION
This should be the match of the entire tournament so far when Novak Djokovic and Pablo Carreno Busta meet for an almost immediate rematch following their infamous round of 16 tie at the US Open. Djokovic shook the tennis world when he reacted badly to a break of serve by petulantly and, of course, accidentally, hitting a line judge in the throat with a ball. We never got to see the outcome of that match due to his subsequent disqualification but PCB was ready to serve for the set at Flushing Meadows and he has every chance of taking one here. In fact, with a small crowd present likely to back the Spaniard as the underdog, and the belief that he is playing some of his best tennis right now, Carreno Busta could well take the Serb to a classic decider. However, there is no greater opponent in tennis than Novak Djokovic with a point to prove. It should be highly competitive no matter the score but the world number one looks set for nothing else than another Roland-Garros final.
