 What's going on everybody? Welcome to another match preview We have made it to the semi-finals of Wimbledon on the men's side. The matches are going to be starting tomorrow So we're going to be going through that both of the semi-finals will go and talk a little bit about what happened in the quarter finals We obviously did previews for those and First we're going to stick with Djokovic versus Batistra good. So this one is very interesting for me I mean a lot of people out there probably are going to dismiss Batistra good They might not even know who he is because he hasn't done anything on a Grand Slam level to this extent But when we go through the head-to-head you'll be very surprised at what he's actually done against Djokovic in 2019 so let's go to the road to the semi-finals to this stage for Novak Djokovic So best appearance here He's won this title a few times But the most recent was last year is the defending champion and he defeated Kevin Anderson last year in the final and then Obviously beat Djokovic. Sorry beat Nadal along the way as well There's his road to the final to the quarter Sorry semi-final he beat Koltribe first round tricky opponent dismissed him in straight sets Kudler in the second round in straight sets again. Her catch was actually his biggest test to date So as you can see there tiebreaker in the second set went the way of the Polish player And then Djokovic obviously finished it off but a little bit of danger there for Djokovic He gets the big serving Polish youngster then the fourth round easy win for Djokovic against a young Frenchman and then in the quarterfinals I was actually shocked at how well Djokovic played. I know he's the world number one defending champion But Goffan was winning in that first set He was up 4-3 30 love and then after that Djokovic just ran away with a match Goffan couldn't come back from that It was absolutely devastating from what Djokovic did very similar to what he did against Nadal in the final of the Australian Open that same level Which is perfect for Djokovic fans because he's playing at the perfect level at the right time of the tournament And of course he plays Batista Agut in the semi-finals. Let's see where RBAs come from So as you can see his best result here was in 2017 in the fourth round He lost the Marin Chilich who actually made the final that year So not a terrible loss in hindsight beat Gajelic in the first round without dropping a set He beat Darcy's in the second round thanks to a retirement in the third Then he beat Hashinov which was huge in the context of his tournament because Hashinov can be a dangerous player on grass He's got a big serve He plays very similar to Del Potro and we all know that Del Potro is good on grass as well So Hashinov gets dismissed in straight sets a massive win for RBA there Then he beats Ben Waipare again another player who can do really really well on the grass courts when he's playing his best RBA put him away as well in straight sets and then against Pella in the last round Pella was coming off a couple of really tough matches Especially against Rayonich coming back from two sets to love down RBA dropped the third set But it was all the way through he was winning that match So it's pretty easy for him in the end and then of course he's playing Novak Djokovic Now this is where things get interesting Let's go to the head to head So as you can see it's seven three in favor of Djokovic no surprise Djokovic has a seven three record over a lot of players He's got a winning record over pretty much everyone everybody But as you can see the last two times they played 2019 Batistra good has won both of them and he's come back from a set down in both of them as well There's a little bit of a typo there But it is six one in the first set of the miami open two Djokovic And then obviously Batistra good went on to win that one Then the last time they played Not on hard court Was it Roland Garros last year and still that scoreline is pretty close Seven six seven six in the middle two sets six four in the first set to Djokovic pretty close there Djokovic won that one and that's what happened. They haven't never played on a grass court So we've got to keep that in mind never played on a grass court But their head-to-head record when it's on a hard court is dead even three three Djokovic has won the other four matches on clay courts. So which is Batistra good's weakest service So somehow Batistra goods got the good the wood over Djokovic when it comes to playing on a hard court We'll see what happens with the grass courts last time they played Djokovic won four out of 13 break points So he had a lot of opportunities He just couldn't take him and then as you can see last time Batistra good had four out of seven break points So the opposite he had smaller opportunities, but he made the most of everything he had Which is what he's going to have to do in the semifinal here against Djokovic last round against Goffan Djokovic won seven out of ten break points So that's what he needs to do if he's going to beat Batistra good take his opportunities And he was at 70 conversion rate on his break points against Goffan, which is crazy good And then as I said before Batistra goods only lost one set for the entire tournament and that was in the quarterfinals against paya So that's very interesting to see. He's on form and he's dangerous. All right Now I wasn't going to do predictions But I changed my mind to the last minute and I'm going to do them anyway Because I know a lot of people got upset with my predictions about Nadal Even though I was wrong, but I got three out of four in the quarterfinals So I'm going to stick with my predictions and I'm going to stick with what I'm going to what I think is going to happen so I mean both semi-finals are huge They're like both of them have potential to go five sets Like I said, Batistra goods got the two zero record in 2019 over Djokovic Pretty sure he's the only player to beat Djokovic twice this year as well Nadal Federer They've not beaten Djokovic twice this year, but but Batistra good has so that's something he can hang his hat on But I think it will come down to experience. I mean, this is his first grand slam semi-final He's playing a guy who's won a lot of semi-finals and also won a lot of these grand slam titles as well So he knows what it takes. Also, it's a five-set match and it's on grass So it's a little bit different to what Batistra did at the start of the year where he lost The first set came back to win on hard court in a three-set match So I think it's going to be a little bit tricky for a Batistra good I think if he's any chance of winning he's going to have to win the first set If he lets the first set drop to Djokovic, Djokovic will run away with a match But I think this is this is definitely going to be four sets I think maybe five sets of Batistra good can get maybe a little bit lucky in You know, maybe wins the first set in the third set But I think that in the end the winner of this is going to be Novak Djokovic I mean I picked him to win the whole tournament from the start He had the easier draw out of the big three. So Nadal Federer Djokovic He had the easier draw out of all of them He doesn't have to play against Nadal or Federer or both of them in this tournament And has to play one of them, which is a big deal So I think he wins based on experience I mean Batistra good's got that psychological advantage though won the last two Very interested to see how Djokovic reacts in the first couple of sets against Batistra good Like I said, I think Batistra good can get a set. He's only lost one set So he's definitely not going to be tired going into the Djokovic match fully fresh He's not lost hardly any he's lost one set So he should be fine fitness wise and he seems to know how to beat Djokovic It just depends if it can convert onto a grass court So I think Djokovic wins this one. Let's say four sets five sets is probably pushing it a little bit But I'd love to have a five-set match either way Djokovic will win and he will make it into the final of Wimbledon 2019 so make sure that you come along to the live shows We're doing live shows on Friday for both semi-finals back to back.
