Andy Murray has admitted that he is glad to still be in with a chance of reaching the next round of the ATP World Tour Finals having defeated Milos Raonic to keep his hopes alive.
The 27-year-old faced elimination had he lost in last night's Group B clash, although a straight-sets win ensures that he goes into tomorrow's meeting with Roger Federer knowing that a similar victory will put him in a strong position to progress into the semi-finals.
Murray has predicted a tough battle at London's O2 Arena, but insists that he is "looking forward" to what could be his final match of the season.
"It will be obviously a very difficult match," he told reporters. "But it will be an exciting match. A good one to be part of. We've had some very good matches over the years.
"I hope on Thursday it will be the same. Hopefully I can get through the group and keep going. If not, playing against Roger is a good way for me to finish the year, as well.
"There's a lot of positives for me going into that match. It's nice to go into Thursday with an opportunity to go through. I'm looking forward to it."
Federer and Murray are locked on 11-11 in their previous head-to-head clashes.
