Wimbledon 2026 Day 4 Predictions, Order of Play & Best Bets
Wimbledon Day 4 order of play, predictions and best bets: Świątek and Rybakina headline Centre Court while Zverev, Fritz and Anisimova chase the third round.
Wednesday went to form at the top and produced one real shock. Jannik Sinner (7-6, 7-6, 6-4 past Nuno Borges) and Novak Djokovic (6-3, 6-4, 6-2 over Stefanos Tsitsipas) both cruised into the third round, top seed Aryna Sabalenka came through 6-1, 7-6(9) and Coco Gauff survived a Day 3 thriller against Solana Sierra 6-3, 3-6, 7-6(7). The upset of the day belonged to Barbora Krejčíková: the 2024 champion recovered to beat fifth seed and Roland-Garros winner Mirra Andreeva 4-6, 7-5, 6-4.
Day 4 puts the women’s title favourites centre stage. Defending champion Iga Świątek and 2023 winner Elena Rybakina both headline Centre Court, while Alexander Zverev, Taylor Fritz and Amanda Anisimova lead the men’s and women’s seeds chasing the third round. Full match previews and order of play below, and if you’re building a slip, see our Wimbledon Day 4 acca tips.

Day 4 Predictions & Best Bets
Karolína Plíšková v Iga Świątek
Świątek arrives as the defending champion and looked increasingly at home on grass through last summer’s title run. Plíšková, a former world No.1 and 2021 finalist here, still owns one of the biggest serves in the women’s game and can shorten points on a quick court, but her movement has slipped and Świątek’s return neutralises exactly the free points Plíšková needs. The third seed should control the baseline.
Best bet: Świątek to win in straight sets — approx 8/13 with Paddy Power.
Caty McNally v Elena Rybakina
Rybakina, the 2023 champion, has the most complete grass game left in the bottom half — a flat, penetrating serve and clean ball-striking that barely gives an opponent time to set. McNally is a gritty, well-liked American with a strong doubles pedigree, but she has never gone beyond the second round in singles at a major and lacks the weapons to trouble a former champion on this surface.
Best bet: Rybakina to win in straight sets — approx 4/6 with Sky Bet.
Valentin Royer v Alexander Zverev
Zverev is the highest-ranked man in action on Day 4 and, at 20/1, the pick of the outsiders for the men’s title now Alcaraz is absent. His serve is a grass-court weapon and his baseline defence buys him time even when his rhythm dips. Royer is a big-hitting Frenchman ranked outside the top 100 and playing his first Wimbledon of note; he can hold serve for a while but the level should tell across three or four sets.
Best bet: Zverev to win in straight sets — approx 4/5 with Bet365.
