| WTA BArcelona Quarterfinal: Rafael Nadal vs Janko Tipsarevic |
Earlier, Rafael brushed aside world number 246 Robert Farah 6-2, 6-3 in their match played on Thursday to reach the quarterfinals of the Barcelona Open Banc Sabadell. However, the score speaks volume of resistance from such a low ranking player to world number two and the king of red clay.
Serbian Janko Tipsarevic, who dismissed Portugal’s Frederico Gil 6-2, 6-2, lost both his past two meetings with Nadal, including once on clay, and is bidding to reach his third ATP World Tour semi-final of the season.
Nadal after recently recovering from his knee injury is play superbly, having lost only one of his last ten matches - and the lost one was the one in which he retired against Murray at Miami due to his troubling knee. The Serb on the other hand has lost three of his ten matches played this year. The last loss was at Monte Carlo when Simon beat him 6-0 4-6 6-1.
Who is favourite - well I should not say who is but suffice to say that the Spainard has not lost a match at the ATP World Tour 500 clay-court tournament since 2003.
The match is scheduled for Friday 27 April 2012 at 13:30 GMT
