Rafael Nadal will face Novak Djokovic in the Artois Championships final after both had convincing wins in the semis.

Nadal lived up to his billing as tournament favourite by beating 2007 champion Andy Roddick 7-5 6-4.

Djokovic thrashed an out-of-sorts David Nalbandian 6-1 6-0 to secure his final spot in the Wimbledon warm-up event.

French Open Nadal will become the first Spaniard since 1972 to win a grass title if he is able to overcome Serbian second seed Djokovic at Queen's.
