We’re into the final stretch at SW19, and things are starting to heat up. Days 10 and 11 of Wimbledon 2025 see the men’s and women’s semi-final lineup take shape. Some mouthwatering matchups are already on the cards, including a blockbuster showdown between Carlos Alcaraz and Taylor Fritz.
The stakes couldn’t be higher, and every set is a battle for a place in the final. We’ve broken down the key clashes and highlighted where the value lies for anyone betting on tennis this week. Here are our top Wimbledon semi-final predictions and betting tips heading into the business end at the All England Club.
Jannik Sinner vs Novak Djokovic Predictions
Match Prediction: Jannik Sinner in Five Sets
This is a blockbuster match on Centre Court. World No. 1 Jannik Sinner will meet the legendary Novak Djokovic in a rematch of their 2023 semi-final. Djokovic remains the ultimate test on grass and is going for a historic 25th major singles title. However, Sinner has taken his game to another level since they last met at the All England Club.
This is the moment Jannik Sinner has been building toward. The Italian has been flying all tournament. His serve’s been on point, the groundstrokes are laser sharp, and he’s looked calm under pressure. He’s also moving better than ever on the grass, which has made a big difference in tight moments. Sinner looks ready for his biggest test so far.
Djokovic, of course, is still Djokovic. No one knows how to navigate the big stages better. He always finds a way to dig in and flip the script when it matters most. But there are a few small question marks this time. His knee still looks to be nagging him and the fact that he hasn’t been properly pushed yet could bite him. Against someone playing as confidently as Sinner, that could make the difference.
Jannik Sinner vs Novak Djokovic Betting Tips
Best Bet: Over 4.5 Sets
We are expecting some strong back-and-forth here in what could be the most competitive game of the semi-finals. This bet is somewhat of a longshot, worth 19/10, but both men are at the height of their game. A win for either man will come narrowly. Anyone betting on Jannik Sinner vs Novak Djokovic should back over 4.5 sets in the game.
Taylor Fritz vs Carlos Alcaraz Predictions
Match Prediction: Carlos Alcaraz in Four Sets
One of our best tennis predictions is for Carlos Alcaraz to defeat Taylor Fritz and reach the final. Alcaraz was the pre-tournament favourite to win Wimbledon and is a clear favourite to win this match. However, the last thing the Spaniard should do is underestimate Taylor Fritz. The American has been excellent in the tournament so far and deserves his spot in the final four. He despatched Karen Khachanov in style, and the world number five has proven he belongs across the court from elite opponents.
With that being said, Alcaraz is the favourite for a reason. The World No. 2 has grown into the tournament in each round after a slow start on the hallowed green. He survived a scare against Fabio Fognini in round one after the Italian forced five sets and has looked far more comfortable, dropping just two sets since. His ability to adapt mid-match and raise his level in key moments remains unmatched for someone so young. Alcaraz brings variety, speed, and fearless shot-making. That is exactly what’s needed to absorb Fritz’s firepower and turn the tide when rallies get long.
Expect Fritz to snatch a set, possibly early, but Alcaraz’s all-court game, tactical intelligence, and elite fitness should ultimately see him through. The Spaniard’s defence and power in rallies will force errors, and once he finds his groove, he tends to take over. Fritz will test him, but Alcaraz should have the answers.
Taylor Fritz vs Carlos Alcaraz Betting Tips
Best Bet: Carlos Alcaraz over 20.5 games
We expect Fritz to claim at least one set in this match, but Alcaraz to leave victorious. That would mean the Spaniard would need three sets or more in a losing set for this bet to come in, which seems more than doable. A bet on Alcaraz to win over 20.5 games is worth 5/6 for anyone betting on the over/under.
Aryna Sabalenka vs Amanda Anisimova Predictions
Match Prediction: Aryna Sabalenka in Straight Sets
Aryna Sabalenka heads into this one as the big favourite and for good reason. She is one of the most powerful players on the tour. The top seed has only dropped one set in the entire tournament and has won every game in style. The way she plays is perfect for grass, and she has one of the best serves in the women’s game. Her ability to dig deep is there in droves, and she looks unstoppable at the moment.
Amanda Anisimova deserves credit for getting to this stage. She’s shown real grit and ball-striking quality throughout the tournament. Her win over Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova in the last round was impressive, as were the rest of her wins. But Sabalenka is a different kind of challenge, though. She’ll bring serious pace, and if she finds her range early, she can blow opponents off the court. Anisimova has not proven herself against elite-level opponents yet, and this is a huge dive into the deep end.
Anisimova has the tools to make this competitive, especially if she can absorb some of that power and extend rallies. However, Sabalenka’s serve and intensity should make the difference. Expect the American to battle hard, but if Sabalenka keeps her unforced errors low and keeps landing a lethal first serve, she should come through this in straight sets.
Aryna Sabalenka vs Amanda Anisimova Betting Tips
Best Bet: Sabalenka to win in straight sets (2-0)
Aryana Sabalenka has only dropped one set at Wimbledon so far, and we cannot see her losing another here. The Belarusian has been formidable, and Anisimova has not played anyone near her level in the tournament this year. This is too big a leap for the American. We are backing Sabalenka to win 2-0, worth 21/20 with our online sportsbook.
Iga Świątek vs Belinda Bencic Predictions
Match Prediction: Iga Świątek in Straight Sets
Iga Świątek comes into this one in strong form and looks seriously sharp. She’s been improving with every round at Wimbledon, and while grass hasn’t always been her favourite surface, she’s figured it out. Her movement is slick, her forehand is doing damage, and she’s cleaning up points with ease once she gets on the front foot.
Belinda Bencic is no pushover. She’s smart, experienced, and has the kind of all-court game that can cause problems if she gets into a rhythm. She’s had a solid run so far, mixing aggression with some crafty shot selection, and her win in the last round was a reminder that she knows how to handle pressure.
That said, she’s coming up against a different beast in Świątek. The Pole has been ruthless when she’s locked in. She has taken the ball early, stepped inside the baseline and suffocated opponents with her pace and consistency. If she starts fast and keeps her unforced errors in check, this could be a long day for Bencic. Expect Bencic to put up a fight in patches, but Świątek’s intensity, shot-making, and relentless focus should be too much. Straight sets look the likeliest outcome here.
Iga Świątek vs Belinda Bencic Betting Tips
Best Bet: Belinda Bencic under 10.5 games
Świątek has been locked in during her Wimbledon run and hasn’t let many opponents get close on the scoreboard. Her aggressive returning and baseline control tend to shut down players who can’t match her intensity. Bencic may struggle to find enough openings here. If Świątek starts fast, this could be wrapped up efficiently. A bet on Bencic to win under 10.5 games looks strong and is worth backing at 10/11.
