ATP Gerry Weber Open, Halle - Kohlschreiber v Petzschner

An all German final on the grass courts of Halle. Kohlshreiber has not faced a break point in the last three matches he has played and has taken out Hewitt and Monfils comfortably. His compatriot Petzschner though took out Tomas Berdych in the semis though I think he was a little lucky to win the first set and Berdych had his chances. The match could be close and 1st serves will be important. Both players are winning over 80% of their first serves and only 40-50% of 2nd points, so this could be the key. The bookies have Kohlschreiber as the favourite and I think I will have to agree. He has looked solid. head to head Kohlschreiber leads 2-1 but Petzschner won their last meeting in Dubai in 2011. Kohlschreiber won in Monte Carlo and Indian Wells last year. Could be close, its either mans for the taking.
