Wednesday’s Wimbledon Tips: Isner and Djokovic to do the business

Battle for Wimbledon glory is hotting up

It’s down to the nitty gritty at Wimbledon now. The Women’s semi-finals are tomorrow, and today’s clashes see eight players in the Men’s game looking to reach that stage.

Once again, the Coral News Team have a quartet of top tips on the action, beginning with John Isner’s bid for a first ever Grand Slam semi-final.

John Isner to beat Milos Raonic @ 6/5

Previous meetings have generally gone the way of the veteran American. Isner has won three of the pair’s four clashes. And he’ll surely be confident ahead of the first Grand Slam clash between himself and Raonic.

It’s likely to be a close affair, but the 33-year-old has had the better 2018 thus far. He also reached the Fourth Round at Roland Garros, while the Canadian has had some struggles with form and injury this year. The signs suggest Isner can edge this one.

Set Betting: Novak Djokovic 3-0 (v. Kei Nishikori) @ 4/5

Previous encounters between these two could hardly be more one-sided. Djokovic has won the last 12 meetings. Nearly all of those victories have been extremely convincing – five of the previous seven have been in straight sets.

The Serb has a terrific record at Wimbledon, having reached four of the last seven finals, winning three of them. As for Nishikori, he’s never made it past the last eight in London. This should be a very one-sided affair.
