The All England Club will see four women take centre court in two separate matches to determine who will compete in the women's final on Sunday.

Here's everything you need to know to watch the women's semifinals at Wimbledon on Thursday.

Matches to Watch on Day 10

Angelique Kerber vs. Agnieszka Radwanska

One of two exciting matches, Kerber will take on Radwanska for a chance to make it to the Wimbledon final.

Kerber is coming off an emotional and easy win over the soon-to-be retired Kim Clijsters in Round 4 of the tourney in straight sets, both 6-1. However, her last match against Sabine Lisicki wasn't so easy.

Kerber battled to a victory in three sets. After dropping the second set in a tie-breaker to Lisicki, Kerber took the final set, which went down to the wire, 7-5.

Before that most recent test against Lisicki, the German had cruised to all straight-set victories, so it is quite possible Kerber might be running out of gas late in the tournament.

Radwanska had enjoyed the same tournament-long success of straight-set wins leading up to her quarterfinal match against Maria Kirilenko. It was then that the Polish-born tennis star was taken the distance for the first time during this year's Wimbledon. But she still emerged victorious, 7-5, 4-6 and 7-5.

These two have squared off four times in their respective careers, with the series split at two matches apiece. The biggest match between Radwanska and Kerber was at the US Open in 2011, where Kerber was the winner, 6-3, 4-6 and 6-3.

Despite their history, however, none of their past matches have been on this big of a stage and this late in a major tournament. Expect this match to be closely contested and one for the ages.

Before a straight-sets win over Petra Kvitova in the quarterfinals, Williams was taken to the brink of elimination in her two previous matches. But she seems to be regaining the top form she showed earlier in the tourney.

If her win over Kvitova was proof of anything, it showed that Williams can step her game up when the competition gets tougher. And that's exactly what she did against her highest-ranked opponent so far.

Azarenka has yet to drop a set at the All England Club this year. The closest she came was a tie-breaker win over Tamira Paszek in the quarterfinals. Other than that, it's been a rather effortless run to the semifinals.

That being said, Azarenka hasn't come anywhere near the type of competition that Williams will bring on Thursday—you can pretty much throw the rest of her previous matches out the window. Serena is unlike any opponent Azarenka has faced this year, and she is easily the highest-ranked.

Williams has owned the head-to-head history against Azarenka, having won an astounding seven of eight matchups between the two. Their most recent showdown happened at the 2012 Madrid Open, when Williams beat Azarenka in the final in straight sets to take the tourney.

Williams has dominated their past matches. With all the experience in the world at Wimbledon, especially over her opponent, there's no reason to suspect anything but a Williams victory over Azarenka and another trip to the Wimbledon final.
