  • The men’s quarter-finals take place at Wimbledon on Wednesday with Novak Djokovic, Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal all in action.

    The trio will be favourites to fill three of the four semi-final berths, with the other going to Guido Pella or Roberto Bautista Agut, while Andy Murray and Serena Williams are back on court in the mixed doubles.

    Here, PA previews the ninth day of action.

    ORDER OF PLAY

    Court One

    Guido Pella v Roberto Bautista Agut

    Sam Querrey v Rafael Nadal

    Court Two

    Brit watch

    With no Brits left in the singles draws, Murray is flying the flag in the mixed doubles. ‘Murena’ – the nickname chosen by Williams – have breezed through the first two rounds, but face a tougher test against top seeds Bruno Soares and Nicole Melichar

    Match of the day

    Federer’s showdown with Kei Nishikori is the only one of the four matches to have tallied with the seedings.

    Eight-time winner Federer bowed out at the same stage last year to Kevin Anderson, while Nishikori won their last meeting at the ATP Finals in December.
