World number one, Roger Federer takes on Britain’s Andy Murray in this weekend’s final at the Australian Open Tennis Championship, which should he win, he will be claiming his 16th Tennis Grand Slam and his fourth Australian title. It would be quite a phenomenal achievement which simply adds to his many other phenomenal achievements, which includes the fact that this will also be his eighth Grand Slam Final in a row.
It is a daunting prospect for Murray, but the Scot, who has been in fantastic form ‘down under’ remains confident and who believes that his day has finally come to claim a first Grand slam title. The bookmakers Paddy Power has Federer as 8/13 odds on favourite to win the match, with Murray at 6/4, these are odds that confirm what most plaudits think - that the match will be a very close affair.

In fact, few realise but Murray has the better of the head to head record between the two players having won six of the ten matches they have played. However in the only match they have met at Grand Slam level, it was Federer who came out on top, easily defeating Murray in the 2008 US Open Final.

Whatever the outcome reaching the final has been yet another major achievement for Murray, who surely one day will rise to become the world number one player himself. We think he can push Federer all the way in this match and would strongly suggest that if both men turn up playing at the same level as they did in the semi-finals then a five set thriller will be in prospect. For punters however, we think the best advice is to back Federer and his vastly superior record in Grand Slams. We would recommend a Federer win in five sets with the reasonable odds of 4/1 with from paddypower
