The second of two men’s semifinal matchups at the 2018 Australian Open will take place on Thursday evening, or rather, early in the morning on Friday for those in the United States. Roger Federer, the second seed and defending champion, will be taking on the unseeded Hyeon Chung.

The women’s doubles final and mixed doubles semifinals will take place beginning at 11 p.m. ET Thursday on the Tennis Channel. That will run through about 3:30 a.m. ET on Friday, at which point ESPN will take over the broadcast coverage for the men’s semifinal matchup.

Live streaming of the matches can be found via WatchESPN.

The first semifinal saw Marin Cilic, the sixth seed, down the unseeded Kyle Edmund in straight sets, 6-2, 7-6(4), 6-2. Federer is coming off a straight-set win over Tomas Berdych, the 19th seed. Chung bested Tennys Sandgren in his last outing.

The women’s final is already set, and it will feature the top two seeds, Simona Halep and Caroline Wozniacki. The women’s final will be played early Saturday morning.
