Hi John,

To counter the backspin you would need the blade facing the roof.  To counter the sidespin you need to face it to the side as well.  It is an experimentation to get it just right but as long as you understand the principle you will be able to adjust after a few serves to get it right.

We cover the principles fully in our course on Receiving Secrets.  This is available to all of our Premium members to show you in great detail how to return difficult serves.
