A third round match at the Miami Masters between Roger Federer and Juan Martin Del Potro is bound to be played

Roger Federer has made nothing short of a remarkable comeback to the ATP World Tour in 2017, and after that iconic Australian Open, the Swiss won his second title of the year and 90th career title at the Indian Wells Masters with a win over compatriot Stan Wawrinka in the final.

Federer’s 5th Indian Wells triumph adds up to his sensational victory at the Australian Open where he beat longtime rival Rafael Nadal in the final in five sets – and No. 5 is also a record for the venue, one he ties with Novak Djokovic. Del Potro has had a fair start to 2017 so far, producing two incredible fights against Novak Djokovic at the Mexican Open and the Indian Wells Masters. Both Del Potro and Federer are placed in Section-3 of the main draw at the Miami Masters and will be locking horns as early as the third round provided they both qualify.Federer and Del Potro have faced each other 20 times with Federer leading the head to head 15-5. However, they have played some very close battles including the 2009 US Open Final which was won by Del Potro and the semi-finals of the London Olympics which was won by Federer after edging the Argentine 19-17 in the third set.In the entire list, this matchup has the maximum chance of occurring – and why shouldn’t it, as both Federer and Del Potro are in great form and their match would be a nail-biting test for both.
