 Boris Becker: "When the draw was made, and I saw Djokovic and Murray on opposite sides, my pick was a final between Djokovic and Murray because of their performances in the last 12 months on all surfaces apart from clay. These two are the new rivalry in tennis, they've overtaken Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer as the top two and at the biggest events they want to show that."

Richard Krajicek: "Wimbledon is arguably already the biggest tennis tournament in the world, but a British man winning it on home soil would make it the biggest tournament there is. This match is huge.

"I remember last year I was doing BBC Radio 5 live commentary for the first time and on the morning of the final a producer came up to me and said, 'Remember this is the biggest moment in British sport, bigger than the 1966 World Cup! Your colleagues might be a little bit nervous, and understand that for them it could also be their biggest moment.' You could just sense it in the air, the anticipation was massive."
The story so far

Boris Becker: "They both played like I expected them to in the first week. The matches obviously got tougher in the second week and, because of the competition, you're bound to drop a set of two.
In the money

Sunday's champion will receive £1.6m in prize money, while the runner-up collects £800,000. In total, the men's singles prize fund for 2013 Wimbledon is £8.558m, a 49% increase on 2012

"The comeback by Murray against Verdasco was spectacular because he faced a guy who played at his very best. Djokovic's only tough match was against Del Potro and it turned out to be the longest men's semi-final in Wimbledon history. Murray was again tested against Janowicz - losing the first set and being 4-1 down in the third - but he ended up playing his best tennis of the tournament."

Richard Krajicek: "Andy played his worst match in the quarter-finals but he got through that, which is always good. It's great to play one ugly match, make it through and get that bad tennis out of your system - it gets the fighting spirit going. Andy is pretty well rested but as Friday's semi-final against Del Potro was a big battle for Novak, he will be tired and hurting."
