WARSAW, Poland, June 14 (UPI) -- Top-seeded former champion Nikolay Davydenko and second-seeded defending champ Tommy Robredo will meet in Sunday's final at the Warsaw Open.

Davydenko won this tennis tournament two years ago and Robredo beat 2002 champion Jose Acasuso in last year's finale.

Davydenko, 27, advances to his fourth final this year. He won this year at the Sony Ericsson Open in Miami and Poertschach and was runner-up in Estoril.

Robredo, 26, will play in his first ATP final of the year.
