Cilic capable of leaving Federer's title aspirations in tatters

BBC1 & 2, from 1pm
Federer v Cilic
Roger Federer is favourite to progress to the All England Club semi-finals with a victory over Marin Cilic today courtesy of the three Rs – record, ranking and reputation – but the outsider could humble the great man with a telling victory.

Federer won his first five meetings with the Croatian number one, but it was a different story in their most recent clash in the 2014 US Open in which Cilic thrashed the Swiss legend 6-3 6-4 6-4.

Cilic appears to be back playing about as well as he was then and while only Novak Djokovic was Federer’s superior in 2014 and 2015, the third seed’s pace on grass is not what it was in his Wimbledon victory years. Don’t forget he lost to Sergiy Stakhovsky in south-west London just three years ago.
