Novak Djokovic vs Rafael Nadal: TV channel and start time for French Open quarter-final today

Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal meet in the quarter-finals of the French Open this evening.

It is a hugely anticipated rematch of their semi-final at this tournament last year when Djokovic prevailed in four sets before going on to win his second title at Roland Garros.

It is Nadal who is now the sole holder of the men’s all-time grand slam record, though, after the Spaniard clinched the 21st major of his career at the Australian Open earlier this year.

Djokovic has enjoyed a seamless straight-sets run to the last-eight, however, Nadal was taken the distance as he survived a scare against Felix Auger-Aliassime in the fourth round.
