Andy Murray will be hoping to replicate the success of fellow British star Johanna Konta when he plays for a place in Wimbledon's semi-finals.

If Murray also wins a place in the semi-finals on Wednesday, it will be the first time since 1967 Britain has had a man and a woman in the last four of the singles.

What time does it start?

The match will start at 1.00pm on Centre Court.

Where can I watch it?

It will be shown live across BBC One and Two.

Alternatively, you can follow The Independent's live blog above.

What have they said?

Andy Murray: “He serves big, he goes for his shots and he’s not an easy guy to come up against. He’s had some great results here in the past. He had a big win against Novak here last year and he’s beaten [Jo-Wilfried] Tsonga here too. He’s a great grass-court player, but I’ve had good success against him in the past and hopefully I’ll take that into the match with him on Wednesday.”

Sam Querrey: “The crowd is going to be behind him. But sometimes it’s fun to go out there and play where the crowd is behind the other player 100 per cent. I’m going to try to play aggressive, hopefully play well and sneak out a win.”

Who else should you be looking out for?

Andy Murray isn't the only Briton to look out for on men's quarter-final day.

Heather Watson and Finland's Henri Kontinen are in third-round mixed doubles action against fourth seeds Ivan Dodig and Sania Mirza. That match is fourth up on Court Two.

Meanwhile, British brothers Ken and Neal Skupski are on court now. They're taking on fourth seeds Lukasz Kubot and Marcelo Melo in the men's doubles quarter-finals.

Ken Skupski is back in action later in the day as he and fellow Briton Jocelyn Rae take on 12th seeds Max Mirnyi and Ekaterina Makarova in the third round of the mixed doubles.

Throwback... Wednesday?

Roger Federer and Milos Raonic served up a five-set classic in last year's semi-finals, with the Canadian upsetting the odds to come out on top. The pair meet again later on today. Here's something to get you in the mood for that match:

Ivanisevic backs fellow Croat Cilic

Andy Murray won't be winning Wimbledon this year if 2001 champion Goran Ivanisevic's prediction is anything to go by.

Murray 1-0 Querrey* (*denotes next server)

Murray starts with an unreturnable serve followed up by a big serve-forehand combo to go 30-0 up. An ace followed by another unreturnable serve seals a love hold.

Murray* 2-0 Querrey (*denotes next server)

A shaky start from Querrey as he follows up a double fault with back-to-back errors to hand Murray three break points. The American saves the first with an ace but sends a forehand long to lose the next point and drop his serve.

Murray 3-0 Querrey* (*denotes next server)

Murray misses the mark with a defensive forehand to fall 15-30 behind on his own serve. Back-to-back groundstroke errors by Querrey hand Murray game point, and he takes it with his third ace of the match.

A perfect start by the world No 1.

Murray 4-1 Querrey* (*denotes next server)

Querrey goes for broke with a backhand up the line but misses the mark by a good couple of feet. An unreturnable serve by Murray follows but some heavy hitting from the 24th seed forces the error from Murray and takes the game to 30-15. Querrey misses a lob to lose the next point and hand the Briton a couple of game points. Murray sends a slice backhand into the net to squander the first but takes the second as Querrey nets a groundstroke of his own.

Murray 5-2 Querrey* (*denotes next server)

Querrey wins the first point of the game with another nice drop shot but Murray levels things up with a winning volley. An unforced error by Querrey follows before some dominant hitting from the world No 1 sees Murray win the next couple of points and, with them, the game.
