ANDY MURRAY will face either Florent Serra of France or Spain's Albert Montanes in his first match if fit to compete at the Masters Series event in Indian Wells.

The world No.4 has yet to confirm whether he has overcome the virus that kept him out of Britain's Davis Cup tie against Ukraine.

As the fourth seed, he could face Roger Federer in the semi-finals.

Murray fell ill at the quarter-final stage of the Dubai Open two weeks ago and said the virus had hit him harder than any illness during his career.
