Rafael Nadal has admitted that he is anticipating a "tough" second-round Wimbledon match with Lukas Rosol, who eliminated the Spaniard two years ago.
Nadal came from a set down to beat Martin Klizan today and earn an opportunity to exact revenge against Rosol, who shocked SW19 by beating him in 2012.
Consequently, the world number one is taking nothing for granted and says that he will have to play "very well" to beat the 52 seed.
"I lost because he is a good player, a player that can play very well on this surface. He is an aggressive player, and it will be a tough match again," he is quoted as saying by Sky Sports News.
"I know if I want to have chances to win, I need to play very well, that is what I am going to try. If not, I don't have chances to be in the third round, but I am going to fight for it."
The pair square off later this week.
