The world number one will be in action on Thursday. It looks for all to see that Jannik Sinner is storming his way to a second straight success at the home of grass-court tennis, but if there's anybody who can upset the Italian, then it's probably the man who has won Wimbledon on no fewer than seven occasions. He may be 39, but Novak Djokovic has been in excellent form over the last week or so, showing that he still has the quality (as well as the fitness and determination) to challenge for this prestigious title.
In the early betting, as the much younger player, and as the current world number one, Sinner is hotly fancied, but he may not have it all his own way. Sure, he beat Djokovic in straight sets at this stage of the competition a year ago, but you could argue that the Serb is in a better place with his game this time around, so don't be surprised if this goes beyond three sets. At odds of -147, it's well worth betting that we do see at least four sets played between these two wonderful players.

Our Jannik Sinner vs Novak Djokovic Prediction
Sinner has been in great form, but this will be his toughest test, and if we consider that he did get pushed to a second-set tiebreak by Jan-Lennard Struff last time out, then it's far from overly difficult to see someone like Novak Djokovic making sure that the Italian doesn't get this all his own way. When the pair met at the Australian Open earlier in 2026, five sets were played, so 'Over 3.5 Sets' does look a little generously priced at odds of -147.
