There's truth to that. Federer expected to win when he was down; Berdych expected to lose when he was up. That was because each of them is who he is. After the match Federer said he had a five set feeling when he stepped on the court; it was self-fulfilling. But he didn't play well at all and will have to be better to beat Del Potro.
