[true story]

LJUBICIC - GONZALES pick 1 odds 1.55

H2H 3-3...but....LJubo didnt lose 93 strait serve gems at Wiena!!!!!!! Yes,you read it right...93 in a row including last year,so imo Gonzo is gonna have a hard time in making a brake this time.One more important thing is he forfited doubles cause of some kind of sorenes or he was just tired,its not confirmed yet.Imo ,if was 100% ready its not gonna be enough for Ljubo this time,this is his favorite tournament,favourite surface,90% of winning points on first serve...great tennis.

Regarding Ljubicic - Gonzalez final,

Gonzalez should have played doubles 1/2 finals today but he pulled out,
official reason for his withdraw (on ATP offical web page) is stomach problems.
Only God, and Gonzalez offcourse, knows how serious it was, but regarding that tommorow final will be played as a "best of five",
there might be a possibility that he just wanted to take a little rest,
plus his last two matches here went in 3 sets (quaters and semis),
while Ljubicic had a preety much easy road to this final - all in straight 2 sets.

with such a high 94 straight holding his serve, this show this tournament matters a lot for Ljubicic and i am wary of taking Gonzalez. Taking this stats into consideration, Ljubicic seems to be a good bet for the take today! :D

I am bit angry, that I did not wake up earlier, to make a prediction on the main page. For me, the over is the best choice for this match. Both players seems to be in good form, while I think, that Gonzo will make big troubles to Ljubo. One thing is clear. If Gonzo should prepare for the match with big server like Ljubo is, the best would be for him to win in the round before over another big server. Gonzo won over Roddick and I am sure, that he will be well prepared. Also Gonzo serves very well. I can not see any of those players to not win a set so the over is very great choice. Also when we know, that the H2H is 3-3 and Gonzo is for me in very good form, odds about 2,6 can be counted as value. GL 8)
