Following Djokovic on Centre Court will be third seed Ons Jabeur, who is yet to drop a set en route to the quarter-finals, as she takes on unseeded Marie Bouzkova. 

Britain’s Norrie will look to cement a place in a Grand Slam semi-final for the first time as he takes on David Goffin this afternoon on Court 1. The ninth seed had previously never gone beyond the third round at a Slam.
