Primes, peaks, all interesting stuff, but how about current form.
Federer 1-0 Djokovic.
If Djokovic wins, hats off to him, because Federer is in substantially better overall form right now. The surface is neutral for both, who do well enough on high bouncing volatile HC conditions. Nole doesn't like this court as much as say Miami, because conditions tend to be more volatile and the bounce of the ball is a bit more vicious, so I don't see the speed of the court handing any advantage over to Nole and Federer has won IW 4 times (Nole 2 times).
Conditions and surface - neutral
Ranking and form over the last year - Djokovic but..
Recent form and especially form over the course of the tournament - Federer
Final pick - Federer.
But no winner here would be surprising now, would it.
So, take your pick.
