Roger Federer vs Denis Istomin
Federer is the defending champion in Melbourne but is not the favourite to retain his title.
He faces a difficult opening tie against Russia’s Istomin, who knocked Novak Djokovic out of the Australian Open second round two years ago.
World No 1 Novak Djokovic is the frontrunner to win the opening Grand Slam of the season.
But Federer, in the opposite half of the draw, will is desperate to secure the 100th ATP title of his career and avoid the mistakes made by his Serbian rival.
“I know what Denis did to Novak,” Federer said.
“I watched basically the entire game a couple of years ago when he beat Novak here.
“I’ve had some tough ones against him in the past. He can play well in fast courts, and that’s what it’s going to be a little bit here as well.
“Look, I’m playing good tennis. I’m confident that I think it needs a good performance by my opponent probably to beat me. That’s always a good thought.”
