Poll it up! I'm expecting a close first set that Wawrinka wins then a relatively easy second set he takes

They played against each other in Beuno Aires Semi here last year as well. Almagro won the match : 6-4,3-6,7-5.

I expect a 3 setter with Stan winning this time around.

Stam leads 2-1 on Clay and 4-3 in total matches.

Stan will be wearing a David Ferrer's mask.

good to see robredo progressing well. Ferrer will end that though.

Wawrinka really changed something in his game (or in his head), I hope for victory over Almugro.

I don't want to watch another match between Almagro and Ferrer, it's painful....

Cool

Heart says Stanislas, mind says Nico, side says Wawa so I won't have to LMAO til I split it when Nico becomes AlChokeGro again vs Ferrer!

Battle of two awesome shbh's! Should be a bit of eye candy for the purists.

Gotta appreciate two single-handed BH at work no matter the result.

Shocked that Wawa is hanging with Almagro right now.

Wawa gets the break and will serve for the first set.

Cool story. Stan serving for the set.

Unlucky for Almagro, I believe it was overruling on a 2nd serve so point had to be replayed, then he hit another DF and was frustrated. Can't blame him but nothing much he could do.

Nice first set for Wawrinka. Be interesting to see if he can keep it up.

Almagro loves the red stuff and Wawrinka has had his serve broken a lot this week.
