Wimbledon 2015 Results: Saturday Scores and Monday Bracket Predictions

A busy Saturday at the 2015 Wimbledon Championships is in the books, setting the stage for the tournament's second and final week to once again sweep us off our feet. 

Of course, the play over Day 6 did just that as well. Headlined by No. 2 Roger Federer's comprehensive win over Sam Groth and No. 3 Andy Murray's four-set survival over Andreas Seppi, the top names on the men's side navigated through without daunting trouble.

The same can't be said of last year's champion on the women's side. No. 2 Petra Kvitova fell victim to a third-round upset from No. 28 Jelena Jankovic, ending her quest for a repeat in a 3-6, 7-5, 6-4 thriller.

Those watching early got to see Marin Cilic and John Isner play all of two games before Cilic settled their 12-10 final set from the day before. The late-night viewers got perhaps the best treat—an all-French showdown between No. 12 Gilles Simon and No. 18 Gael Monfils, which Simon took in five exhilarating sets.

That's just the start of Saturday's results, and they all help to shape the draw for the round of 16 and what's to come. With that in mind, take a look below at Saturday's scores and Monday's predictions.

Monday, July 6 Predictions

No. 1 Serena Williams vs. No. 16 Venus Williams

She's struggled her way through Wimbledon's opening week of play, but nothing could keep top-seeded Serena Williams from the inevitable meeting with sister Venus Williams in the round of 16 Monday on the Centre Court.

The two sisters have faced each other 25 times in their careers, with Serena holding the edge at 14-11. But they've rarely been further in terms of contention when playing each other, as Serena has consistently won Grand Slam events and Venus is without a Grand Slam title in seven years. 

However, the favorite believes she's not the most in-form player of the two, per Wimbledon:

Although Venus has slipped from the sport's forefront, she hasn't failed to continue performing against her sister. She won their last meeting at the 2014 Canadian Masters, but she hasn't beaten her on grass since the 2008 Wimbledon final—her last Grand Slam title.

Ever since Serena topped her in the same spot a year later, she's dominated the sport. She still has the chance to complete the Grand Slam in 2015, and it will take a legendary performance to keep her from it. That won't come from her sister.

Prediction: Serena Williams wins, 6-2, 6-4

No. 3 Andy Murray vs. No. 23 Ivo Karlovic

Third-seeded Andy Murray was given his first sweat of the tournament Saturday, but rose above it to dispatch Seppi in four sets. Up next is an enticing matchup with surprise round-of-16 foe Ivo Karlovic.

Karlovic hasn't won any of his three matches thus far in straight sets, playing 13 of a possible 15 sets in the process. But he's continued to impress, taking down 13th-seeded Jo-Wilfried Tsonga in two straight tiebreaker sets.

Murray had little trouble bouncing back from a ghastly third set to get past Seppi in four, but he faces a much tougher opponent on Monday. As he told BBC Sport, Murray will have to be on point:

The Great Britain star is one of the sport's premier players, especially when it comes to returning serves. But he faces one of the tournament's best service men. Karlovic smashed 41 aces against Tsonga and 53 the round before against Alexandr Dolgopolov.

For all of Karlovic's successes on his serve, he's proven awfully susceptible on returns—leading to his marathon matches early in the tournament. Murray won't scoff at the opportunities Karlovic will give in this one, taking advantage to win in three sets.

Prediction: Murray wins, 6-4, 7-6, 6-3

No. 1 Novak Djokovic vs. No. 14 Kevin Anderson

Top-seeded Novak Djokovic hasn't exactly been given much of a test through one week of play at Wimbledon, but his quest for a repeat will begin to take shape in a fourth-round encounter with 14th-seeded Kevin Anderson.

Typically, Djokovic's game isn't predicated on his serve as much as the rest of his game. But he's been pounding his serve thus far at Wimbledon, using it to his advantage in the third round against Bernard Tomic as Wimbledon showed:

He'll face an opponent Monday with a similar all-around game, but admittedly it's one that isn't quite as elite-level. The 29-year-old was taken to four sets in each of his first two matches and has never escaped from the fourth round of any Grand Slam despite his top-15 ranking.

Anderson has in fact beaten Djokovic in his career, but it came way back in 2008 at the Miami Masters. Since, Djokovic is 4-0, including a straight-sets win at Wimbledon four years ago.

Expect more of the same from the Serbian as he moves closer to a Wimbledon repeat.

Prediction: Djokovic wins, 6-4, 6-2, 6-2
