Soderling has hit form this week and had a brilliant 6-1, 7-6 win over Andy Murray in Friday’s quarter-finals to back up his earlier victories over Jo-Wilfried Tsonga and Feliciano Lopez.
Soderling has yet to make a Masters Series final and having come through such a tough section of the draw without dropping a set, you would not bet against him.
Roddick’s chances of reaching this stage looked slim at the start of the week with Federer lurking ominously in his quarter. However with the Swiss crashing out early, Roddick has had a surprisingly easy passage to the last four. Tommy Robredo is the highest ranked opponent he’s had to face.
Although Roddick will have a lot of crowd support and his serving has been formidable this week, Soderling has been striking the ball with punishing accuracy. His forehand literally blew Murray off the court for a set and a half and he will have a strong edge in the baseline rallies.
This has been the case in the past, Soderling has proved too good in both their previous matches, winning each time in straight sets.
Soderling is 8/13 with bet365 and our recommendation is to back the Swede to make his first Masters final.
