Roger Federer has gotten off to a brilliant start in the U.S. Open. After falling short earlier this summer at Wimbledon, his game is razor sharp, and he appears intent on getting back to the finals and winning at the U.S. Open.

The second-seeded Federer will engage in his fourth-round match against 13th-seeded John Isner tonight in the prime-time matchup at Arthur Ashe Stadium at 9 p.m. ET.

Federer has been on a roll since losing to Novak Djokovic in the Wimbledon final. He came back and defeated his rival at the Western and Southern Open in Cincinnati last month, and Federer's serve has been incredibly sharp.

He has also been on fire in the U.S. Open, with straight-set victories over Malek Jaziri and Mikhail Youzhny in the first two rounds.

Isner has lost to Djokovic and Andy Murray, Federer's two primary rivals, this year. However, he hasn't played Federer since August 2012, when he lost in two sets in the quarterfinal of the London Olympics. 

Federer expects the New York crowd to back his American rival.
