He will have almost no chances to win unless he can consistently find his DTL forehand with meaningful pace and vigour, otherwise Nadal just contains him and shows him up for his lack of weaponry - refer to previous matches at Wimbledon.
The key point is, Nadal can easily contain Murray's forehand with his own backhand in their never-ending and boring FH to BH strategic exchanges.

Points updated in OP as they come through, like in the Djokovic thread:
- No, the more key point is one of mentality
- Murray's forehand has improved since then
- Nadal's backhand side is weaker post injury?
- Different context now, Murray turned the corner in 2012, made the Wimbledon final and beat Federer in a best of 5 match on grass at the Olympic Games.
Nadal will lose. - Clarky21 /thread
