Novak Djokovic can move one step closer to a sixth Wimbledon title when he faces Hungarian Marton Fucsovics on Wednesday in a 2021 Wimbledon quarterfinal matchups at The All England Lawn Tennis Club.

Djokovic vs. Fucsovics preview
Djokovic has been nearly unbeatable recently at The All England Lawn Tennis Club. He has won 18 straight matches and hasn't lost since 2017. That "defeat" came when he was forced to retire because of an elbow injury. That match notwithstanding, he has won 22 consecutive matches at Wimbledon that were decided on the court.
Djokovic and Fucsovics have played just twice, but Djokovic has won both matchups. In 2018 they met in the first round of the U.S. Open with Djokovic winning in four sets. And in '19 they squared off in the Round of 16 in Qatar with Djokovic winning two sets to one. Both matches were on hard courts.
How to make Djokovic vs. Fucsovics picks
Calvert is leaning for the match to go over 28.5 total games, but his best bet for this matchup would pay almost 4-1. Be sure to check out Calvert's expert picks and analysis before making your Wimbledon 2021 picks for the men's quarterfinals match between Djokovic and Fucsovics.
