He has nothing to lose and everything to gain: this is the mindset with which Flavio will face one of the greatest tennis players of all time, seven-time Wimbledon winner and contender for the title alongside Alcaraz and Sinner in this edition. Let’s find out the predictions and odds for Cobolli-Djokovic, the quarter-final match scheduled for Wednesday, July 9, at 4 p.m.

COBOLLI-DJOKOVIC PREDICTION ODDS—   The young Cobolli is perhaps facing the most important match of his career, even though he recently won the ATP 500 in Hamburg, the first of his career: but the challenge against Djokovic has a special appeal and represents a milestone for Flavio, achieved through determination, hard work, and sacrifice. His victory over Cilic, celebrated with his parents, brother, and friend Edoardo Bove, was full of emotion and opened the quarterfinals of a Grand Slam for the Italian.
The match against the Croatian was by no means a foregone conclusion, even after winning the first two sets 6-4, 6-4. Cilic’s comeback, winning the third set in a tiebreak, reopened the match, which had been closed at 7-6 by Cobolli, for whom the bookies do not see much chance of beating the former world number one. His entry into the semifinals is worth 7.50 on Snai and Sisal and 7.20 on Goldbet. For Nole, on the other hand, the odds are very low: 1.08 on Sisal, 1.07 on Snai and Goldbet.

THE BITTER PRECEDENT—   Cobolli and Djokovic have only faced each other once, in 2024 in Shanghai: the Serbian won 6-1, 6-2, but at that time Flavio was still developing and had not reached the level of play he has shown in recent days at Wimbledon. Thanks to reaching the quarterfinals of the Slam, the Italian will enter next week in the world top 20 with the prospect of improving even further. Djokovic came out on top against De Minaur after losing the first set 6-1: then the road was clear with a triple 6-4 that left no room for discussion about the final outcome. For Cobolli, there is also the possibility of winning at least one of the five sets in the match: this outcome is priced at 2.02 on Goldbet, 2.00 on Sisal, and 1.85 on Snai.
