I know he has a perfect record against Nieminen but still i think the times when Federer was a 1.07 shot and lower against his fellow top 50 players are long gone now...we are not in 2006 anymore, so every time i see a price like this now i only see value in laying him..

Jarkko is not injured! He said yesterday "Tomorrow's quarterfinal will be against Federer, that will be in the evening. It's always great to play against him and it's nice to get back to the center court (I played my first match there as well) because there is always big crowd there. This tournament has actually been sold out from Wednesday on... and about 13 000 can fit to the center court, pretty impressive."
Still IMO Fed-Ex will take this 2-0, but I´m considering to take Nieminen +5.5...

What odds would you say are good odds for Most Aces in this match?

must be very desprate to back federer at 1.08
should be 1,01

I dont want to have 1.05s on the most aces market, but I think Federer's odds on it should be 1.1s. Anyone agree?
federer could lose with anybody nowdays, especially when is not motivated
Of course, Federer had no second round match because Youzhny didnt play, so he will not be as tired as Nieminen who has just played two matches involving deciding sets.
maybe 1st set TB... seen Fed do that plenty of times for match practice 
7-6 6-3 for me
7-6 6-3 for me
Have turned Kermit off, nearly as bad as the Brazil Open woman.
I'm on fed straight sets at 1.33 that is a gift.
I predict 6-4 6-3 federer.
let's go federer let's go!

Federer has started quickly, not sure if Nieminen can match this for long.
I'm not impressed with Roger so far, seems to be missing some pace on the shots
Federer needs to learn to get the ball over the net
howcan be mugerer 1.06 when he hardly can have a decent mood for tennis
Chill it's early days, Nieminen will be broken at the business end of the set in game 7 or game 9.
I dont think he is playing badly, but his return of serve could do with improvement.
It's just a walk in the park, Nieminen won't be able to break serve once this match. He's not good enough against the great Fed.
He's just missing some rhythm cuz he didnt play yesterday...
I hope this is a one off for this andrew castle mug on sky
You have to ask yourself why Nieminen did not play like this in his previous matches.
as poor as fed is ever going to be on an indoor hard surface really
ffs Federer, virtually every return of serve going long
????????????????????????????????????
Federer has not been even close to the break so far
The crowd needs to shut up when a point is being played, umpire should have warned them by now.
He just wanted to do it the hard way... from 40-0 
nieminen not thinking playing bad shot choices, i remember when Nieminen destroyed Djokovic in Australia seems like a nice guy watched a bit and laid 2-0 fed thought it was on no chance now the way he's playing
Anyone suspecting an obliteration in the next set?
Yer hopefully the 2nd set should be easier now the 1st is under his belt.
He's never lost to Nieminen before so he might be taking it easy. But that's always a bad tactic. Needs to play better to win the 2nd comfortably.
...or his lawyer is at the process of relinguishing finnish citizenship at the moment
You got him right where you want him Jarkko, just a few more shank backhands off netcords and you got this set 
Federer is not at his best, he could lose this set. Probably win it 7-6 though.
funny how it went to sp for 0-15, they must have not been watching
I wonder if Federer had more gears had he gone a break down, or is he playing his very best at the moment?
I think he's just doing the bare minimal here against Nemo

Yer that's what I thought hollywood. Made hard work of it but job done in the end.
Yer I bet 2-0. Thought it would have been an easier win though.
You can always trust captain nemo to mug it away when it matters.
lol, roger was never in danger, just maybe a slight threat of bad luck for fed in TB but never any real chance for Jarko to make a first win against his good friend
