This should be a cracking match-up. The battle of the Serbians will be one of powerful serving, hard hitting ground shots and strength. Djokovic will be the heavy favourite, having won the title in Melbourne a few years ago and is quite a few pundits choice to win it again in 2011. Novak has also won 6 out 7 times these two have played and the last 6. He knows how to get the better of his fellow countryman. Troicki though will be no push over though and has a great and effective first serve. He needs to keep his first serve percentage high as Djokovic will be punish his weak second serve, just as Gilles Simon did in Sydney last week, a part of Troicki's game that probably cost him the title. Victor did take Djokovic to 5 sets in last years US Open so he is capable of competing with Novak. I can only see a Djokovic victory, but there maybe a value bet involving Troicki winning a set.
Match Prediction:
Novak Djokovic to win
