Andy Murray will be hoping to generate more patriotic frenzy on Centre Court when he takes on Rafael Nadal in the Wimbledon quarter-finals this afternoon.

The British number one is intent on emulating the fighting qualities that saw him come back from two sets down to win a thrilling encounter against Frenchman Richard Gasquet in the fourth round on Monday.

The Scot lost to Nadal in five sets at last year's Australian Open but he believes this time he has what it takes to get past the Spaniard.

He said: "Nadal is the favourite but I think that I can win. It is really important to serve well, be aggressive and not let him start dictating rallies.

"Both of our games have changed since the Australian Open game eighteen months ago. I thought at the start of this week I had a chance of winning Wimbledon. I said consistency was the most important thing and I think I have been consistent so far."
