Can anyone stop Federer v Nadal French Open final?

Question

As Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer presented the latest instalment of their rivalry at the final of the Madrid Masters 1000 on the weekend, it was almost too easy to imagine the pair in the same situation at Roland Garros in a couple of weeks’ time.

Federer, after all, is the world No. 1 and the defending French Open champion. Nadal has taken a bite of the silverware in Paris on four previous occasions, and has earned his reputation as the King of Clay since claiming his first title at Roland Garros in 2005.

The Spaniard brought his A-game to the clay courts from match one at the Monte-Carlo Rolex Masters this April, and three titles for the spring later, there are no questions about either fitness or form for Rafa as he seeks French Open title No. 5.

He also got to 00-30 ahead at 4-4 in the deciding set of the Rome final against Nadal
