Juan Martin del Potro and Marin Cilic are even at 5-5 in the first set as rain has suspended their Roland Garros quarter-final on Wednesday. But danger is looming for Cilic, who is serving down 0/30.
The two are meeting for the 13th time in their FedEx ATP Head2Head series. Del Potro leads 10-2, including all four matchups on clay and three of four at Grand Slams. Del Potro won their 2012 Roland Garros third-round match in straight sets.

Three years earlier, the 6'6” Argentine made his first Grand Slam semi-final at Roland Garros. He's looking to return to the last four in Paris for the first time since then.
Cilic has reached all three other Grand Slam title matches – 2014 US Open (d. Nishikori); 2017 Wimbledon (l. to Federer); and 2018 Australian Open (l. to Federer). But the one-time Grand Slam champion is trying to reach his first Roland Garros semi-final and secure his first Top 10 win at the clay-court championship (0-7 at Roland Garros; 9-21 at Grand Slams).
