Djokovic And Murray Will Take Their Court At Indian Wells Today

The world no 1 Novak Djokovic and word no 3 Andy Murray will face their 2nd round oppenents after 1st round bye today.  Andy Murray will take the court at first in stadium 1.  He will face Russian veteran Evgeny Donskoy.  These two will face each other first time on tour.  Donskoy reached in the second round by beating Ito Tatsuma by 6-2 6-1, which shows he is in form and can create problems for Murray.  Andy Murray did not win a match at Indian Wells since 2010.  Therefore, his moral will not be at its peak.  This is the main thing of which Donskoy can take the advantage.  If Donskoy succeed to catch Murray's nerves a little bit, then there will be a big chance for him to draw a huge upset.  But if Murray took control of the match at first, then it would be impossible for Donskoy to come back in the match.  Althoug we can expect that Murray will breeze into the next round .  But if we take last two year's performance of Murray into consideration, then we can  also say that anything can happen. 
As far as Djokovic's first match is concerned he has to face Italian Fobio Fognini against whome he is leading head to head by 3-0.  Which shows that Djokovic would have a huge mental edge against Fognini..  Moreover, Djokovic is the man to beat in 2013.  He is going to repeat his 2011 season, which was epic.  In that season he won Oz, Dubai, Indian Well, Miami, Madrid, Rome, Wimbledon and Rogers cup.  In 2013 he has already won Oz and Dubai, and looking like a man who is unbeaten.  I think it would be litterly impossible for Fognini to win this match.  But he can create some problems for top seed by focusing on his serve and take a set or two in tie breaks.  There will be little chance that he can take set in tie break.  Otherwise, in front a player of such a caliber, Fognini's all efforts will be in vain.    Fognini reached in 2nd round by beating Aljaz 6-4 6-3
