Novak Djokovic will continue his quest for a 10th Australian Open title when he faces Andrey Rublev in the quarter-finals on Wednesday.

Djokovic returned to his imperious best as he crushed Alex De Minaur in straight-sets on Monday, and the 35-year-old appears to have overcome a hamstring injury that was bothering him in the earlier rounds.

Rublev saved two match points to beat Holger Rune in five sets and said of his match against Djokovic: “The only chance I have is if I play my best tennis, just fight for every ball, and that’s it. That’s the only chance.”

Djokovic hailed his win over De Minaur as his performance of the year and said of Rublev: “Incredible firepower, especially from the serve and forehand corner. Just a very explosive player; a little bit like De Minaur, so hopefully the result will be the same."
