The upcoming quarter final match between Roger Federer and James Blake is now in the center of all attention to their fans. Federer has come to Australian Open 2008 with the mission of winning his third Australian Open title in a row, which would see him move within one of the record 14 grand slam titles held by American great Pete Sampras. James Blake, in contrast, is now in the way to reach to the semi final of a grand slam tournament for the first time in his career. I know that there are many who are now eager to know the timing of Roger Federer vs James Blake match. Here goes the timing of the match:

Roger Federer and James Blake faced each other for seven times in the past. Roger Federer, top seed, proved too much for James Blake to win in all those previous matches. However, Blake has been in his prime form and looks determined to take on Roger Federer this time around. Added to that, Roger Federer was not in his great form in the two previous round matches.
So, James Blake seems much more confident now. However, the fact is that the players like Roger Federer can bring out their best in the high profile matches. There are many, who think that, Federer can survive against James Blake even if he is not in his great form. Well, I will go that far, because Blake has also been in an impressive form. What I would like to say is that Roger Federer is favorite for the clash, but if James Blake comes up with his best performance and Roger Federer can not be up to the mark, then James Blake will certainly have chances in the match.
