Serbian Novak Djokovic will battle Spaniard Carlos Alcaraz when the world’s top two men’s tennis players meet in the 2023 Wimbledon men’s final match on Sunday at 9 a.m. ET at Centre Court of the All England Club in Wimbledon, England. Top-ranked Alcaraz is seeking his second Grand Slam title and first since securing the 2022 U.S. Open crown. Djokovic, the former No. 1 player, is eyeing his 24th Grand Slam championship and third in a row. He is also seeking his fifth Wimbledon title in a row and eighth overall. The event was not held in 2020.
Caesars Sportsbook lists Djokovic as the -190 favorite (risk $190 to win $100) on the money line, while Alcaraz is at +150. The over/under for total games is 40.5 in the 2023 Wimbledon odds.

He is 27-0 on grass since 2018, and has not lost more than one match on grass in a year since going 9-3 on the surface in 2012.
