MIKE DICKSON’S TIPS FOR MANIC MONDAY
MEN’S LAST 16 ROGER FEDERER v ADRIAN MANNARINO
Slightly unorthodox Frenchman hits it flat but should not trouble the Swiss master unduly after a weekend’s rest. Verdict: Fed makes it 32 consecutive sets at SW19.
GAEL MONFILS v KEVIN ANDERSON
French cavalier would be a popular winner but giant South African aggressor will be too solid. Verdict: Au revoir, Gael.
MACKENZIE McDONALD v MILOS RAONIC
Big Canadian ought to outgun little-known American who sounds like he should be a Scottish clansman. Verdict: Raonic heading back towards the semis.
JOHN ISNER v STEFANOS TSITSIPAS
If the highly-rated Greek teenager can defuse the Isner power serve then we should really start getting excited about him. Verdict: Isner wins in four tiebreaks.
KAREN KHACHANOV v NOVAK DJOKOVIC
Don’t be fooled by the name, the Russian packs a mighty punch but the Djokovic mojo looks to be restored. Verdict: Ends in another animal celebration from Novak.
KEI NISHIKORI v ERNESTS GULBIS
The five-setters from previous rounds will take their toll in earnest on Gulbis with the skilful Japanese handling his power. Verdict: A first Wimbledon quarter-final for Kei.
JUAN MARTIN DEL POTRO v GILLES SIMON
The Argentine with the huge wingspan has the weapons to punch a hole through the nimble French baseliner. Verdict: Delpo back in the big time at SW19.

Mesmeric Taipei slicer-and-dicer Hsieh meets Jo Konta’s diminutive but pugnacious conqueror. Verdict: Slovak pocket battleship sails on.

KAROLINA PLISKOVA v KIKI BERTENS
Big-serving Pliskova looks like she is finally getting to grips with grass; her Dutch opponent is better known on clay. Verdict: Pliskova to put a poor SW19 record behind her.
JULIA GORGES v DONNA VEKIC
A certain irony this week that Middlesex-trained Croat Vekic is nearest thing we have to a fourth-round Brit. Verdict: Donna’s superior grass-court pedigree sees her edge through.
