Although there have been matches that roddick has failed under the pressure, you do have to remember he is anything but a walk over.
You are taking two examples of him losing. There have been many more times in which he has came out to be a winner.
I am not disputing the fact that Murray has a good chance, but it is not going to be easy, and Roddick will not think of Murray as a push over either. This is why I can agree with your prediction for the match outcome slightly. I predict that each player will get a set, but I cannot figure out who will win the third set.
Let's just wait and see.

yeah I know it wont be easy but Roddick is definatly unbeatable, If Murray gets onto Roddicks serve then I think he has got a good chance, he will probably have to stay way back from the base line or even in the crowd LOL but anything to get onto his serve. I have faith in you Andy  |

I guess you meant to say beatable there. LOL.
The crowd will be on roddicks side, being in US ... But I definetly think this match could go either way.
I really did not want this match to happen.

Very tough one to call by I'll go for 'our' Andy - I'm not a big Roddick fan but I don't hate him! I hope Andy M's not tired out from playing the doubles match after his singles match. Unfortunately, I won't be up for this one - sorry you guys.

I really did not want this match to happen. yeah beatable sorry. LOL I wanted this match to happen because he will need to start beating the really high ranked players if he was to go up to his target ranking(top 20) plus it should be an interesting match. |

Yep I agree that it will be an interesting match, and he does need to show how good he is against higher seeded players. For me personally I just didn't. Because of the two being my favourites, but whoever wins I'm happy. So I guess thats a plus. |

 Just heard about this like 5 minutes ago... OMG.... Nothing can get better than this... Roddick - the one who got me into tennis and been a fan of since childhood... and Murray.. best youngster, so much talent and so much to give.. biggest hope for the future.. not just Britian but the amazing world of tennis. Im so excited about this match!!!!  It will be Murray all the way for me.. but i feel like a traitor to poor old Rod.  Realistically... i don't know what the outcome will be. I haven't seen Andy play since this tournament began and i can't judge. From what im hearng he's fierd up and ready as ever.. im hoping this will be one HECK of a match.  |

That's true... and it's absolutely impossible to choose!! We should just say we support Murray if we're here.. we don't want any  |

Just hope Andy doesn't choke and get beat 6-2 6-1 or something. Although Roddick has a quick serve, returning is Andy's strength so he should be allright. He pushed Fed close so maybe he can do the same to Roddick.

As mentioned before. Roddick is very over-rated. He is fatigued and isnt in the best of form. This could be one f the best chances Andy will have to beat Roddick
