Ahead of playing Croatia in the Davis Cup quarterfinals this weekend, world No. 2 Novak Djokovic says his Serbia team has what it takes to reach the final.

Djokovic, coming off the Wimbledon semifinals last week, says “it’s a pity” Croatia and Serbia are meeting in the quarterfinals as they’re both good enough to deserve to meet in the final.

He says Serbia - led by him and doubles specialist Nenad Zimonjic - has better-ranking players, “but the crowd can help the host.”

The quarterfinal in Split starts on Friday.
