Roger Federer – Kei Nishikori

Two tennis players with one defeat on indoor hard this year, Roger Federer and Kei Nishikori, meet in Group B, in the second stage. The game seems to have it as a favorite on Federer, given that it is better prepared physically than the Japanese, but also with greater experience here at the “Champions Tornement”, but Nishikori can always produce surprise, so it will be extremely attractive to see who will be able to impose.
Direct meetings between Roger Federer and Kei Nishikori:
2014 – Halle (grass) – Semifinals: 6-3, 7-6 for Federer
2014 – Miami (hard outdoor) – Quarterfinals: 3-6, 7-5, 6-4 Nishikori
2013 – Madrid (clay) – optimum final: 6-4, 1-6, 6-2 Nishikori
2011 – Basel (indoor hard) – final: 6-1, 6-3 to Federer.

Semifinalist in 2002, 2009 and 2013 and finalist in 2005 and 2012 and winner of the tournament in 2003, 2004, 2006, 2007, 2010, 2011, Swiss tennis player has probably the greatest performance at the “Champions Tournament ” .
In the first game without appeal defeated the Canadian Milos Raonic on 6-1, 7-6, after a few days ago in minimum sets lost everything before it.
The London area is favorable for Federer, just like any other we might say, this can be seen in the match against Raonic. With a win today, Roger would ensure his qualification and we expect a great match today.

Kei Nishikori came to this tournament after a semifinal in Paris, where he was eliminated by Novak Djokovic and managed a win in the first match of the group in front of Andy Murray. For those who have not watched the match, even he won the game , Nishikori was not in the best shape ever, rather than physical suffering, not at the level it has accustomed us. Second service was pretty poor, but the British did not know to take advantage of this. If this will happen again, Federer will not miss the opportunity and he will have another victory ifn Nishikori will repeat the mistakes of his first game.
