Murray is the super hot favorite to win the first ATP tournament of the year and get his first 250 points.
Seeded no.1, Andy doesn’t have to confront any other big 4 and the “next highest seed” is Raonic (world no.13).
So Murray should win this one… but Raonic leads 2-1 in head to head against Murray, so we will see it.
Last year Murray won the tournament defeating Dolgolopov 6-1 6-3
