The standout tie in the men’s quarterfinal draw at Wimbledon will take place on Centre Court on Monday. Novak Djokovic was irked by the home support in his previous match, but he will need to regain his composure against another home favorite in the form of Alex de Minaur.
Before Betting On Alex de Minaur vs Novak Djokovic
Seven-time Wimbledon champion Novak Djokovic will be back on Centre Court on Wednesday, just days after losing his cool and responding to negative reactions from the crowd at Wimbledon. Djokovic was feisty in his post-match interview following a straight sets win over Holger Rune, as he spoke about the lack of respect towards him as a previous champion at the Grand Slam by the home support.
However, regardless of that, the Serbian has been at his dominant best once again at Wimbledon this year, as he chases an eighth title at SW 19. Djokovic has dropped just two sets on his way to this stage, but he was at his clinical best when dispatching Rune in the previous round in straight sets.
De Minaur will likely have the home support for this showdown against Djokovic, as the Australian is dating British number one Katie Boulter. The 25-year-old will be competing in his third Grand Slam quarterfinal on Wednesday, but he is yet to progress past this stage of a major event.
De Minaur has battled through the previous rounds, but he should be slightly fresher than his rivals after getting two walkovers already at the championships. He showcased his best tennis in the round of 16 on Monday after eliminating French player Arthur Fils in four sets. However, this is a major step up in opposition.

Despite Djokovic’s recent comments on court, he has been playing at a typically high level throughout the Wimbledon championships this summer. A straight-sets win over his Australian rival on Wednesday could see him cruising through to another Grand Slam semi-final.
