Head to Head: Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovick are going to face each other 37th times their glorious tennis career. Out of these 36 matches Nadal has won 21 matches while 15 matches have been won by the Serbian star Djokovick. From this we can say Nadal has upper hand but off late Djokovick has earned most of his victories on the Nadal.
Rafael Nadal who has won 50 matches out of the 53 matches he played before starting his campaign in US Open is looking in very good form. This year has been even for the Novak Djokovick too and he has displayed sizzling tennis. As Roger Federer is looking like if he is going to retire soon the main rivalry in tennis circuit is going to be between these two stalwarts.
Rafael Nadal will start as the favorite in the final as Nadal has beaten Djokovick in their last two hard court meeting Cincinnati Masters and Rogers Cup before getting into the US Open. Nadal also has a chance to equalize his loss to the same opponent in the finals of US Open 2011. Rafael Nadal has lost only one set in the current US Open and he is looking in quite dominative form.
Novak Djokovick is going to play in the fifth consecutive final at US Open. Djokovick has won once in the US Open finals while lost on the three occasions. Djokovick is going to put everything to win his second US Open grand slam tournaments but he will have to play his best to defeat the king of clay and 8 times French Open champion Rafael Nadal.
Rafael Nadal defeated 8th seeded Richard Gasquet in the semifinal in straight sets while, Djokovick defeated the 9th seeded Wawrinka in five setter semifinal. Rafael Nadal who has won 21 matches on the row on hard court in 2013 after making his comeback from the injury has already won three titles on the Hard court. But, Novak Djokovick leads the encounter on the Hard court as he has won 11 matches out of the 17 matches they played.
Rafael Nadal is in incredible form and very high on confidence since making his comeback from injury. If we drop the first round exit of Nadal at the Wimbledon he has played incredible tennis this year. US Open 2013 final is going to be played on the Monday rather than the traditional Sundays. So, we are going to see the hell of a match between the best of this time in the tennis. Another Epic encounter is in waiting as the two best players in business to face each other in the US Open finals.
