🎾 12:00*: Karen Khachanov (Russia, 11) – Lorenzo Sonego (Italy), Roland Garros, fourth round
*Important: Match times are subject to change and will be confirmed.
Intrigue: will Khachanov take revenge on the offender Rublev?
For the third TBSH in a row, Karen Khachanov shows the best result among Russian men. At the US Open-2022 and Australian Open-2023, he reached the semifinals, and is now in the 1/8 final. Many expected at this stage to see the Russian derby – Rublev – Khachanov, but Andrei lost the 2-0 lead in sets in an incomprehensible way and lost to Italian Lorenzo Sonego. Now Karen will try to take revenge on the attacker of her partner.

🎾 12:00*: Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova (Russia, SR) – Elise Mertens (Belgium, 28), Roland Garros, fourth round
*Important: Match times are subject to change and will be confirmed.
Intrigue: will the Russian take advantage of the retirement of the third racket in the world?
Roland Garros 2021 finalist Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova, after a serious injury, is quickly returning to her previous positions. She had to endure two difficult derbies with Lyudmila Samsonova and Anastasia Potapova. In the round of 16, Pavlyuchenkova was supposed to meet on the grid with the third racket in the world, Jessica Pegula, but due to health problems, she lost in all-around to the Belgian Elise Mertens. Will Anastasia take advantage of this situation and take another step forward?

🎾 13:30*: Novak Djokovic (Serbia, 3) – Juan Pablo Varillas (Peru), Roland Garros, fourth round
*Important: Match times are subject to change and will be confirmed.
Intrigue: Will the upstart from Peru surprise the 22-time Slam champion?
The 27-year-old Peruvian holds only the third TBSH of his career, and only at this Roland Garros was he able to overcome the first round barrier. Apparently, this success impressed Juan Pablo so much that he eliminated two strong number-seeded tennis players: Spaniard Roberto Bautista-Aguta (19) and Poland’s Hubert Hurkach (13). Note that all three opponents, including China’s Junchen Shang at the start, were defeated by Varillas in five sets, while he lost 0:1 in sets to Hurkach, and even 0:2 to two other tennis players. Will the Peruvian upstart surprise the 22-time Slam champion they’ve never met before?

🎾 2:00 p.m.*: Karolina Muchova (Czech Republic) – Elina Avanesyan (Russia, LL), Roland Garros, fourth round
*Important: Match times are subject to change and will be confirmed.
Intrigue: Will Russia’s lucky loser break new records?
Elina Avanesyan, 20, continues to work wonders in her Roland Garros debut. Having entered the main draw only as a lucky loser, the Russian woman has already reached the fourth round of the “RG”, thereby showing a result that she has not been on TBS for 30 years. Will Elina manage to set a new record, because she will face the semifinalist of the Australian Open-2021, who, however, has not yet been to the 1/8 finals in the WG before?

🎾 15:30*: Elina Svitolina (Ukraine, SR) – Daria Kasatkina (Russia, 9), Roland Garros, fourth round
*Important: Match times are subject to change and will be confirmed.
Intrigue: Will Svitolina beat the second Russian in a row?
Elina Svitolina returned to tour after the birth of her daughter, and “Roland Garros” for her is the first “Casco” after leaving the decree. The Ukrainian continues to successfully progress up the grid. In the third round, he managed to win back 0: 1 in sets in a match with Russian Anna Blinkova. What will happen in the confrontation with the first racket of Russia Daria Kasatkina?

🏎 16:00: Formula 1 – Spanish Grand Prix
Intrigue: who is behind Verstappen and will Pérez and Leclerc break through?
After Saturday’s qualifying in Barcelona, it’s decidedly unclear if anything can stop Max Verstappen, except perhaps the weather or an unexpected technical failure. But the big question is who will be behind the Dutchman: in terms of pace, Ferrari, Mercedes and even McLaren and Alpin are very close! In addition, Fernando Alonso (ninth in the standings), Sergio Pérez (11th), George Russell (12th) and Charles Leclerc (19th) will surely come out ahead. We have the right to expect a brilliant fight, in which it is impossible to predict the final composition of the winners of the race. And if it rains again on Sunday…

🏆 ⚽️ 7:15 p.m.: Braga v Porto, Portuguese Cup final
Intrigue: Will Porto win the second Portuguese Cup in a row?
Braga and Porto are the last two winners of the Portuguese Cup. The first took the trophy in 2021, the “dragons” a year later. In the Portuguese championship, Benfica took gold, while Porto and Braga are happy with the fight in the Cup. By the way, in the national league, the teams took second and third place, respectively. Porto won the Portuguese Cup 18 times (only Benfica won more – 26 titles), Braga – three trophies. For the “gunsmiths” each cup plays a much more important role. But Porto is unlikely to please Braga fans. Also, the Dragons are the last club to win the Portuguese Cup several times in a row (3, 2009-2011). Why not get closer to repeating the achievement?
⚽️ 7:30 p.m.: Real Madrid – Athletic, League, Matchday 38
Mystery: Will Real Madrid keep second place at the end of the Spanish championship?
In the Spanish Example, the final will be played on Sunday, the 38th round. The two main intrigues are the fight for money and survival. At the top of the table, two irreconcilable clubs -Real Madrid and Atlético Madrid- will fight in absentia for the second row. The advantage of the “cream”, ahead of the opponent by one point. To stay in second place, it is enough for Real Madrid to beat Athletic and not look at the results of the parallel game. The main issue in the media regarding Madrid is the possible departure of Karim Benzema. But Real Madrid shouldn’t forget about football either. Finishing the season well and keeping Atlético ahead is an important mission, at least for the fans.

⚽️ 10:00 p.m.: Udinese – Juventus, Serie A, matchday 38
Intrigue: Will Juventus stay the same without the Europa League?
The Juventus season is a roller coaster. At the beginning of the championship, the “old” was stormy, flew out of the Champions League and walked in the middle of the table in Serie A. Then Juve began to win steadily, but they took 15 points from the team in the case of financial fraud. The club, despite this, won and rose steadily up the table. Then the points were returned to Juventus, the team flew to the Champions League zone. And then a new problem. Allegri’s team was knocked out in the Europa League semifinals, and a couple of days later they were finally deducted 10 points in Serie A. As a result, Juve surpassed the Champions League the following season, for the first time in 12 years. The team fell to seventh place and only makes it to the Conference League before the last round. To reach at least the Europa League, Juve will have to win away from Udinese, and also wait for mistakes from Roma or Atalanta. It is likely that in the next season of the European Cup we will see a top club like Juventus in the Conference League for the first time. But the situation can still change at the end of Serie A.
