Last week, the Swiss reached the semifinals at ATP World Tour Masters 1000 Indian Wells, but lost to Andy Murray. Murray advanced to the finals at Indian Wells, but only to be beaten by Federer’s nemesis, Rafael Nadal.

His opponent, Roddick has reached the quarterfinals for the fourth straight year after getting passed France’s Gael Monfils. Last year, Roddick was able to beat Federer in the quarterfinals. Nevertheless Federer has since defeated Roddick in the semifinals of the 2009 Australian Open and holds a 16-2 edge in their head-to-head matchups.

"I love playing against him," said Federer of Roddick. "I played him at the Australian Open and played well against him there. He's seems like he's changed a couple of thing in his game, so should be a good match, I'm sure.

"I think on the big occasions I just have that extra gear that not many players have. So I feel like that's an advantage, because of my talent, because of my experience. But in a match, best of three against a guy like Andy, it's all to play for really. He's always been dangerous. I've always respected him a huge amount."
