The top seeds on both sides of the draw will take the court on Wednesday, but one will have a tougher assignment on paper than the other. No. 1 Novak Djokovic is set to take on what may be the toughest No. 6 seed in the history of the French Open.

Djokovic will renew his long-standing rivalry with Rafael Nadal as the two men meet a little earlier than usual at Roland Garros. Nadal has struggled during the 2015 clay court season and thus he came to Roland Garros seeded well below the stature you'd expect from a nine-time French Open champion.

Djokovic won't be lulled to sleep by Nadal's struggles leading up to the tournament. Per Piers Newbery of BBC Sport, Djokovic has called Wednesday's tilt "the toughest quarterfinal match of my career."

Nadal still holds a 22-20 edge in the career series vs. Djokovic. However, Djokovic has won five of the last six meetings between the two. Djokovic rolls into the match on a 26-match win streak, and I expect him to take that run to 27.

The tide will officially switch in what will go down as the match that effectively ends Nadal's dominance at Roland Garros. For the next few years, the road to the title will likely go through Djokovic.



No. 1 Serena Williams takes on No. 17 Sara Errani for the ninth time in their careers. Williams has won the previous eight meetings. She has struggled early in several of her matches this tournament, but per ESPN Stats and Info, dropping the first set hasn't been much of an issue for the future Hall of Famer:



It's hard to fathom Errani finding a way to beat Williams.

The former has only managed to win two sets in those eight previous matches. Expect Williams to win again on Wednesday with relative ease.

Here's a look at the rest of Wednesday's schedule.
