The reigning US Open champion defeated Jozef Kovalík, Alexandr Dolgopolov, Fabio Fognini and Gaël Monfils to reach this stage as Wawrinka looks to be back in championship form after some stuttering performances in recent months.

As for his opponent, Čilić made history as he became the first Croatian since Mario Ancic and Ivan Ljubicic in 2006 to reach the quarter-final stage in the French Open.

With his meeting against Wawrinka being his first ever quarter-final appearance at Roland Garros, the 2014 US Open champion has now reached the last eight in all four Grand Slams.

Čilić defeated the likes of Ernests Gulbis, Konstantin Kravchuk, Feliciano López and Kevin Anderson to reach this stage and the world number eight is wary of the Swiss ace, having been on the losing side more than the winning side against him.

"With Stan it's extremely difficult on any surface. He has won a lot of matches in a row against me," Cilic said, as quoted on ATP World Tour. "I have to still be focused on myself to do my own thing."
