It's a 4th Uniqlo clash already this season.
Djokovic won the previous ones in Melbourne, Miami and Madrid all in straight sets.

Who will book a place in the final match?

Looking at how Djokovic prefers Rome over Madrid while it's the opposite case for Nishikori,

Novak in 2.
 
Talk about predictability: Nishikori easily overcoming the overrated Thiem in two and then Nishikori will be manhandled in two by Djokovic. Or, maybe Nishikori will retire in the match vs Djokovic since he seemed to be suffering from yet another injury in the match vs Thiem. :rolleyes: Yawn. What fierce competition at the top!
 
Well done to Nishikori for reaching another Masters semifinal. However he doesn't seem to produce his best against Novak lately. Probably combination of Novak's amazing play and the mental block the Japanese and pretty much everyone has against him in recent months.

Novak in not so tight 2 sets.
 
Novak, Rafa, Murray, and Nishikori are the 4 leading favorites to win the FO. And Novak Will have to beat all the other 3 to win in Rome. Hope for better draw for him in Paris.
 
NishiGOAT to end the terror. :rolleyes: Kei being consistent in the big tournies so far, but not showing up when it truly matters. 6/4 6/3 to Djoko sounds about right. I'm praying I'm wrong though.
 
Djokovic in 2. This is the point of events like this he typically picks up steam and it will happen again here and he will steam to the title. Should be a good quality baseline match though. I would be happy if Kei can just take a set.

It'll be a career achievement for Kei if he gets more than 4 games in one set.
 
Going with Earth's mightest warrior, the heavyweight champion to win in a hard fought match, because I expect a little lull after he vanquished Nadal yesterday.
