Out of loyalty and optimism I must go for Andy in 3. However, it will be a dog fight with these two.
I'd love to be more confident, but Andy has been a bit inconsistent in his last tournaments, so I have some reservations.

I'm hoping the match is on Wednesday, because I anticipate it'll be a long one, and with a theoretically easier match on Friday to move to the semis, he should then be fresher in the semis.
I can see it being a three-setter, but even two sets will not be quick. They both appear to have enough gas left in the tank to be taking this tournament seriously and to fight for each point.

Oh, I do hate trying to predict Andy's matches with Djokovic. They can be so very tight. That said, Andy has had a couple of straight sets wins this year, so it can be done.
Djokovic beat Tsonga in straight sets just now, but as we know, Tsonga, bless him, is no Andy. To my mind at times today Djokovic looked less than convincing. To me, frankly, there were times when if that had been Andy instead of Tsonga, Andy would have pounced. I would go as far as to suggest that Novak looked less convincing at times today against Tsonga than Andy did against Berdych.
I'm going to sort of stick my neck out and say Andy in three, but I would not be in the least surprised if it is in two. To my mind Djokovic looks beatable.

Murray vs Djokovic in the afternoon session. Looks like another Sky+ recording for me.

Sorry, not got my usual Andy first on the H2H, but I wanted the picture of a determined Andy!
They've met 6 times this year - even stevens at 3 all.
Should be interesting

Well I hope you do better than my Sky+ would have done today! Last set totally missed! Tut tut Sky or ESPN, whomever is at fault!

Hmm, I'm going to be controversial. Not just to be devil's advocate, I genuinely believe this is how things will transpire.
Murray in 3 here, but he'll lose to Djokovic in the final.

One question. Why doesn't this match get the evening session? Surely Murray vs Djokovic is a bigger primetime draw then Berdych vs Tsonga. Stupid scheduling imo.

Maybe BBC have had some say in the scheduling? As they're only showing the afternoon session for some bizarre reason.

You could be right but Sky almost certainly pump more money into it than the beeb do so I woulda thought they had the choice which match goes when.
