How to watch Federer vs Nadal: live stream Wimbledon 2019 semi-final online from anywhere

Having played out arguably the greatest tennis match of all time at Wimbledon during their final clash in 2008, its not a great stretch to predict that today's showdown between the two veterans will likely be the game of the tournament - and certainly the most anticipated. You can watch all the action from Centre Court no matter where you are in the world with our Wimbledon Federer vs Nadal live stream guide below.

Nadal eased to victory against Federer at the same stage of the French Open last month, but today should be different, with the Swiss eight-time Wimbledon champ playing on his preferred surface of grass.

With 38 grand slams between them, today marks the 40th clash between two of the game's greatest ever players. Nadal leads the head to heads 24–15, with Federer edging their Wimbledon encounters 2–1.

Both players have rolled back the years with their runs to the semi-final. Nadal in particular showed plenty of resilience to see off Nick Kyrgios within four sets during their thrilling second round match - the only one where the Spaniard has dropped a set. Meanwhile Federer has so far hit an astonishing 206 winners to 88 unforced errors in his five matches at this year's Wimbledon Championships - not bad for an old-timer who will be celebrating his 38th birthday next month.
