Andy Murray's last chance to win a match on grass before Wimbledon will come against Novak Djokovic on Thursday afternoon.
The Boodles tournament will see Murray face the world number one and reigning champion at SW19.
The 25-year-old's unconvincing preparations for the All England Club continued when he was beaten 7-6 (7/5) 4-6, 7-10 by Janko Tipsarevic on Wednesday.
It was only his second match on grass following his first-round exit from the AEGON Championships last week.
Wimbledon begins on Monday but Murray, the number four seed, insists his preparations are on track.
"It's always good to get matches in before a big event, especially against a top 10 player, so it was a good test," he said.
"I was moving much better than I was a week ago at Queen's, I wasn't slipping around as much which will be important for Wimbledon.
"I'm hitting the ball very well and practice has been very good over the last few days.
"I've got another match at Boodles and then I'll spend two or three days at Wimbledon before the tournament starts."
