Wimbledon is one of the most anticipated events in the sporting calendar
Federer may be the No3 seed but he is first in the betting to secure an eighth title at the All England Club.
The Swiss came back from a six-month injury lay-off last year to win the Australian Open and skipped the clay-court season to focus on getting fit again for Wimbledon.
Meanwhile, the world No1 Murray will open the Championships on Centre Court hoping to prove a sore hip will not hinder his progress through the draw.
