Murray and Djokovic are set to contest their fifth Grand Slam final
Great Britain's Andy Murray will play world No 1 Novak Djokovic in the Australian Open final on Sunday. It will be their 24th meeting and fifth in a Grand Slam final.
Murray is looking to become the first man in the open era to win the title after suffering defeats in his first three finals, the Scot having lost to Roger Federer in 2010 and Djokovic in 2011 and 2013.
The top seed holds a 15-8 winning record against Murray, but the record in major finals is 2-2 with Murray beating Djokovic in the US Open in 2012 and Wimbledon the following year
Here, we delve into the archives and look back at their most important previous matches.
2011: Australian Open, final, Djokovic won 6-4 6-2 6-3
Having lost to Roger Federer the previous year and in New York two years before, Murray was looking finally to prove he could cut it in a Grand Slam final.
The Scot's wretched record in major finals continued, however, as he went down in straight sets to an inspired Djokovic, who began the season by winning 43 consecutive matches and ended it with three slam titles.
It triggered a run of dismal form on tour for Murray, who lost his opening matches at three straight tournaments.
2012: Australian Open, semi-final, Djokovic won 6-3 3-6 6-7 (4-7) 6-1 7-5
Murray had the perfect opportunity to exact revenge on Djokovic the following year in Melbourne, and he almost did it during an epic encounter that lasted four hours and 50 minutes.
Having just appointed Ivan Lendl as his coach, Murray fought back from losing the first set to win the next two, but defending champion Djokovic recovered to clinch victory and give Murray the unwanted tag of being the first man in the open era to be eliminated in semi-finals at four successive Grand Slams.
2012: London Olympics, semi-final, Murray won 7-5 7-5
Just a month after suffering a heartbreaking Wimbledon final loss to Roger Federer, Murray enjoyed what was then his finest run on the grass of the All England Club, beating Djokovic to guarantee himself a medal at his home Olympics. Murray lapped up the attention from the raucous crowd and went on to beat Federer in the final to win gold.
2012: US Open, final, Murray won 7-6 (12-10) 7-5 2-6 3-6 6-2
Murray v Djokovic: US Open final
Murray ended Britain's 76-year wait for a Grand Slam men's singles champion after an epic victory that took four hours and 54 minutes to achieve.
The Scot sank to his knees and covered his mouth in disbelief at what he had achieved following four failed attempts to win a grand slam final.
"When I realised I had won, I was a little bit shocked, I was very relieved and I was very emotional," Murray said after recovering from letting a two-set lead slip away to win in five.
2013, Australian Open, final, Djokovic won 6-7 (2-7) 7-6 (7-3) 6-3 6-2
Djokovic brought Murray back down to earth with a bump as the Serbian showed typically high levels of mental strength to fight back from one set down to win his fourth title in Melbourne.
Murray was troubled throughout by a blister and was also thrown off guard by a feather that floated down onto the court, disrupting his serving pattern as Djokovic broke in the second set before clinching victory by winning the next two comfortably.
2013, Wimbledon, final, Murray won 6-4 7-5 6-4
The match that will define Murray's career ended with one of the most dramatic games ever seen in a grand slam final. The Scot had fought back from a break down to win the second set and recovered from a similar deficit in the third to leave himself serving for victory.
He looked to have done it when he moved to 40-0 but Djokovic saved all three match points and had three break points of his own before finally netting a backhand on Murray's fourth chance.
"Mentally, that last game will be the toughest game I'll play in my career," said Murray after he had finally consigned Fred Perry's status as the last British man to win a Wimbledon singles title to history.
2014, US Open, quarter-final, Djokovic won 7-6 (7-1) 6-7 (1-7) 6-2 6-4
Murray v Djokovic: US Open quarter final
Djokovic won all four of their matches last year as Murray struggled to regain form and fitness following back surgery.
It was all to play for after they shared the first two sets in New York, with Murray blasting forehands, but he let the momentum slip early in the third set and was never able to regain it as he faded physically.
The contest began at 9.43pm local time in New York and the clock was well past 1am by the time it had finished.
Murray admitted that Djokovic’s physicality had been crucial to the outcome of the match: "I am obviously disappointed. It is extremely late. I am tired and I don’t feel particularly proud right now."
