Félix Auger-Aliassime is in superb form on grass, displaying a phenomenal serve: in four matches, he's broken his serve only once and hit 67 aces. However, his victory over Davidovich-Fokina in a four-hour, five-set marathon must have taken a toll on the Canadian's physical and emotional state.
Novak Djokovic, meanwhile, has broken Roger Federer's record for most Wimbledon wins (106), but his game is far from perfect. In his last two matches, the 39-year-old Serb was forced to go four sets apiece, battling not only his opponents (including world number 132 Safiullina), but also his own mistakes and temper tantrums. The veteran admits he needs to improve, and it's in the quarterfinals that he traditionally finds his best tennis.
Given that the two teams are tied in their head-to-head matches (1-1), bookmakers favor Djokovic with odds of ~1.56. Given Auger-Aliassime's strong serve, his ability to force a fight on grass, and Djokovic's inconsistency and fatigue in recent matches, this match should be a long one.
