Here's everything you need to know about the clash.

What's been said?

Andy Murray: "Obviously, in some of the matches that I have played I wouldn't expect, even if I was playing at my peak, necessarily to win in straight sets.

"A match like (Basilashvili) against someone who is in the 20s in the world, it's always going to be difficult. But obviously it would be nice to have some quicker ones.

"That's where I have had this discussion with my team and we were talking about trying to shorten matches and ways to play quicker points."
