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.

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.”

Andy Murray to win: 9/50

Sam Querrey to win: 39/10

Murray 6-3 1-1 Querrey* (*denotes next server)

Murray shanks a forehand long to lose the opening point of his service game but wins the next four points in a row to hold to 15.

Murray* 6-3 4-3 Querrey (*denotes next server)

A double fault follows an inside-out forehand error as Querrey falls 0-30 behind on his own serve. A sublime backhand passing shot from Murray brings up three break points... but he can't take any of them as Querrey wins the next four points to bring up game point for himself. A lovely running lob from Murray hauls the game back to deuce and he brings up a fourth break point with a short cross-court forehand winner... and this time he takes it as a backhand passing shot bounces off the frame of Querrey's racket and well wide.

Murray 6-3 4-6 2-0 Querrey* (*denotes next server)

At 15-15 Querrey misses the mark with a couple of forehands before a backhand into the tramlines ensures Murray holds to 15.

Murray* 6-3 4-6 3-2 Querrey (*denotes next server)

Querrey holds to 15 but Murray undoubtedly hits the best shot of the game - a superb backhand lob to leave his American opponent stranded.

Murray 6-3 4-6 4-2 Querrey* (*denotes next server)

A nice backhand drop volley from Murray followed by a couple of missed Querrey returns bring up three break points for the top seed... and he needs just the one as the American nets a forehand.

Murray* 6-3 4-6 4-3 Querrey (*denotes next server)

Querrey sends down his 12th ace of the match for a love hold.

Cilic* 3-6 7-6 Muller (*denotes next server)

Cilic comes from 5-3 down in the tie-break to win it 8-6, sealing it with a stunning forehand passing shot on the run. We're level at one set all!

Murray 6-3 4-6 5-3 Querrey* (*denotes next server)

A hold to 15 for Murray as he moves to within a game of a two-sets-to-one lead.

Ed Malyon12 July 2017 14:43

Murray* 6-3 4-6 5-4 Querrey (*denotes next server)

Querrey holds to love. Murray will serve for the set after the change of ends.

Ed Malyon12 July 2017 14:43

Murray 6-3 4-6 5-5 Querrey* (*denotes next server)

Murray wins a scrappy first point with an easy short forehand putaway but drops the next point with a netted backhand. Querrey moves 15-30 up on the Murray serve with an inside-out backhand winner before another netted backhand from the Briton hands his opponent two break-back points... and the American needs just one as he crunches a cross-court backhand winner to level this set up at 5-5.
