Aiming for a record-equalling 20th Grand Slam, Novak Djokovic would lock horns with Denis Shapovalov in the men's singles semi-finals on Friday, July 9. That match would be played at the Centre Court and is scheduled to commence at 08:00 PM IST (Indian Standard Time). Djokovic, coming on the back of a French Open title win, would walk into this contest as the overwhelming favourite. The Serbian has been in top form all-throughout the competition, having dropped just one set so far. A win would not only put Djokovic on the hunt for a 20th Grand Slam title, but also on course for seventh straight win over his 22-year old opponent. As a matter of fact, with the remaining competition left in the tournament, it wouldn't be wrong to fancy Djokovic winning it. But with how things turned out in the quarter-final match between Roger Federer, it can be argued that although there are favourites, no one can be ruled out.

And Shapovalov won't make things easy for the 34-year old Serbian. Playing his first semi-final, Shapovalov, who has been in superb form throughout the competition, is expected to put up a fight.
