MATCH OF THE DAY
Novak Djokovic (9) v Fernando Verdasco (Rod Laver Arena, second match late session)Novak Djokovic begins his attempt to reclaim the number one ranking. The number two seed will take on Spain's Fernando Versaco, unseeded for the tournament. Djokovic will need to recover his exceptional fitness and consistency if he is to succeed in this tournament, but he warmed up nicely with a win over Murray in the final of the Qatar Open. The Scot looked unconvincing in dispatching Ilya Marchenko - can Djokovic lay down a marker?

POTENTIAL UPSET OF THE DAY
Rafael Nadal (9) vs Florian Mayer (Rod Laver Arena, third match first session)There is no doubting Rafael Nadal's talent. He has the experience and track record to prove that he can be the very best player in the world. Unfortunately for him, his body has been unable to keep up with his ambition, and repetitive injuries have held him back for a couple of years now. Mayer, at 33, is an old head capable of exploiting any weaknesses.
BRITWATCH
