Former champion Stan Wawrinka takes on Federico Coria in the second round of the Croatia Open Umag on Thursday.

It is now 17 years since the Swiss veteran triumphed at the ATP 250, beating the likes of Marin Cilic and Juan Martin del Potro along the way.

He then defeated a certain Novak Djokovic in the final, but only after the Serb was forced to retire near the conclusion of the opening set due to breathing difficulties.

Almost two decades on, Wawrinka is seeded sixth in Umag and fresh from reaching round three at Wimbledon for the first time since 2015.

The 38-year-old made a strong start with a commanding 6-3, 6-2 victory over Filip Misolic in the opening round, and he would equal his best performance of the season with victory over Coria, having also reached the quarter-finals in Rotterdam and Marseille.

Coria is looking to claim his second Swiss victim in as many matches after defeating Wawrinka’s compatriot Marc-Andrea Huesler 6-4, 6-2 in the opening round.

The Cordoba runner-up is now aiming to reach only this third ATP quarter-final of the season, having also enjoyed a run to the last eight in Bastad last week.

The winner of this match will play either fourth seed Roberto Carballes Baena or Taro Daniel in the quarter-finals.

Play gets underway at around 5pm BST on Thursday and will be contested over the best of three sets at the Goran Ivanisevic Stadion.
