Andy Murray believes he can win his first major by beating Roger Federer in the Australian Open final.

Murray is aware that it will take a special performance to upset the top seed and world number one.

However Murray believes that his experience of losing to Federer in the 2008 US Open final will stand him in good stead.

"I was only 20 when I played him in that US Open final," Murray said. "Twenty was pretty young when I played my first Slam final. A year and a half, two years later, I just feel physically more mature, mentally more mature.”

"I just have a lot more experience in these sorts of situations now. I have a game that can cause Roger problems. I have played him a lot of times now so I know the way you need to play against him. There are not going to be too many surprises on the court tomorrow. I know what to expect. I know how he's going to play. It's up to me, like I said, to play my best."

Murray has taken note of Juan Martin Del Potro’s comeback against Federer to win the US Open title and says he will not be feeling any pressure if Federer starts quickly.

“Obviously it would be nice to start well, but I don't think it's the end of the match if the start doesn't go my way," he said.

"Guys have come back against him in the past. "You look at the US Open final last year against Del Potro. Federer was up a set and serving for the set and Del Potro came back. In five-set matches so much can happen. A lot can change in just a few points, like my match the other night against (Marin) Cilic.”
