You posted this before GSM in the other semi?  Can't predict this one, don't have a gut feeling whatsoever. |

Joker to win in 4 unfortunately. He has not lost a single set except the one in farcically windy conditions yesterday. I really hope Im wrong but I believe Andy will tomorrow become the 1st player ever to lose his first 5 Slam finals.

Oh gawd. I feel sick already. Soooo close.......  It's going to be one hell of a match. I always said the future was Murray/Djokovic, but now it is the present. |

I predicted Novak in 5 against Murray in the final a while ago. I don't really want to make a prediction on this one now though. I hope it's a high quality match like AO was, this feels like a round 2 of that match to me!

Have faith - Andy will bring his AA game tomorrow. He'll mix it up so much that Djoko won't know whether he's coming or going. GO ANDY!!!!!!!!

I'm going for Andy, he will be fired up and he beat Nole in the Olympics. As to Nole not dropping a set, look at who he has played he had the easiest draw and the only tricky player he had was Del Po. If you race a donkey against a horse, the horse is going to win every time. The match tomorrow will be decided by sheer determination and strategy and Andy will have this in buckets. He will be confident because Lendl will have let him know that he believes he can win, that this is his time.

Must say, Jokers last 2 matches have been against players where the pace and trajectory of the ball is EXACTLY the same for every single shot |

Andy will have to bring his A+ game here, Novak has been playing extremely well his defence is just incredible; better than ever I think.

I'm feeling oddly optimistic. Andy in 5.
I can't help but feel this is a bad omen, I suck at predictions.

I was thinking this. Andy has so much more variety than those guys and has proved in the past that he has what it takes to go toe-to-toe with Novak. I don't think Novak's performances mean much. He's clearly in good form, as is Andy. It all boils down to who plays better on the day. |

It depends on Murray. Nobody in their right mind would have predicted that he could/would beat NJ and Federer back to back only a few weeks ago, and London 2012 would end with Murray Gold, Federer being made to settle for Silver in a tournament he desperately wanted to take the prize in, and NJ leaving empty handed. If the Olympic Murray walks on to the court tomorrow he will win, it's as simple as that. In the last Semi NJ didn't do much win, as have Ferrer hand him the place in the final gift wrapped. I am certain that Murrsy would have got most of those balls back.

When it comes to predictions this is what I said last December - and I'm sticking with it!!! Got Federer's rise back to No.1 a bit wrong but who cares about him any more.
''Have a bit of a feeling the top 4 will share the Slams next year they're all so equally matched and all well able to beat each other. No-one else will get close so I'll say
Oz Djok
RG Rafa
Wim Mr Smug but very happy to be wrong here!
USO Andy
Would be nice for Andy to get OZ then we can all relax and enjoy the ride even more than already. Andy and Djok will battle it out for No.1 with Rafa 3rd''
