Novak Djokovic v David Ferrer betting tips - Djoker can mount a comeback against Ferrer

NEW YORK, NY - SEPTEMBER 08: Tournament officials talk with Novak Djokovic of Serbia and David Ferrer of Spain prior to suspending play for the day due to inclement weather during their men's singles semifinal match against on Day Thirteen of the 2012 US Open at USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center on September 8, 2012 in the Flushing neighborhood of the Queens borough of New York City.

Storms cause Novak Djokovic's US Open semi final with David Ferrer to be halted and the delay may work in the favour of the Serb, who was losing 5-2.

Watch and bet on Djokovic v Ferrer live at bet365>livestreaming>tennis from 16:00 BST today.

Novak Djokovic was a 1/12 favourite to beat David Ferrer in the US Open semi final before the match started but a slow start from the defending champion has seen those odds pushed out to a best price of 3/10 with Coral. That is possibly not quite lump on material but it is certainly of interest.

Ferrer was leading 5-2 at Flushing Meadows before storms caused the match to be delayed and we have to assume that the Spaniard will now go on and win the first set. That would represent the first ever set that the world number five has taken from Djokovic in 20 attempts and would rank as a major achievement.

However, it should not be forgotten that there is still a clear gap in class between the two players and a five set match is a long one. Djokovic couldn't cope with the wind on Saturday but in calmer conditions he will be expecting to bounce back and beat a player that he has already won against twice this year.

Ferrer has never reached a Grand Slam final and that is something that must also be taken on board before he is backed at in-play odds of 3/1 with bet365. As the match wears on, assuming no interruptions, nerves will surely play their part and Djokovic's superior mental strength has to be respected.

At Wimbledon this summer Ferrer took the first set against Andy Murray but then lost the next three to the Scot. This pattern looks very likely to be repeated today in New York and at odds of 20/21 with Betfred it is perhaps now worth a bet.

Recommendation

Set Betting - Djokovic 3 Ferrer 1 (20/21, Betfred)
