Novak Djokovic vs Alex de Minaur prediction, betting tips & odds, head-to-head, preview: Wimbledon 2025

Novak Djokovic will face a challenging round for a quarter-final berth.
Novak Djokovic celebrated a historic milestone at Wimbledon on Saturday, defeating fellow Serb Miomir Kecmanović in straight sets to become only the second man to reach 100 match wins at the All England Club.
The 38-year-old, already a seven-time champion in London, showcased his trademark precision and resilience to dismantle fellow Serbian counterpart, and move one step closer to an eighth title, which would equal Roger Federer’s record haul.
With this latest triumph, Djokovic joins Federer as the only player in Open Era history to record 100 or more victories at two different Grand Slams, having previously breached the three-digit mark at the Roland Garros. With another Federer record shattered, the Serbian will have his sights firmly on the coveted title.
