Novak Djokovic hopes he gets back to his bets fitness-wise as he takes on Grigor Dimitrov for a spot in the fourth round. Djokovic struggled with his hamstring issue during his second round contest against Enzo Couacaud, which he won in four sets. The Serbian wants to stay fit until the end of next week as he is gunning for his 10th Australian Open title.
Grigor Dimitrov meanwhile is yet to drop a set in the tournament. The experienced Bulgarian dropped just five games in his second round against Laslo Djere. In the opening round, he defeated Aslan Karatsev 7-6, 7-5, 6-2. He is aiming for another good show against Djokovic.

Agut is the 24th seed in the tournament. He clinched a straight set win against Joao Sousa in the opening round of the tournament. In the second round, he won a five-setter against Brandon Holt after losing the first two sets. The contest against Murray and Agut is also likely to go into another five-setter.
