Novak Djokovic will be taking on Andy Murray in the Australian Open Men’s Final on Sunday. 

One of the biggest tennis tournaments of the year, the Australian Open, is coming to a close, which means that it’s time to watch the Men’s Final take place. In this one, two of the biggest names in the sport on the planet will be doing battle for the trophy, as Andy Murray will be taking on Novak Djokovic.

Djokovic comes into this one as the No. 1 seed of the tournament, so there’s really no one all that shocked that he’s here. He advanced to the Final by defeating another big name in the sport, Roger Federer, once again proving just how lethal he is on the court. Now, he finds himself one win away from the big prize in Australia.

To make this matchup just perfect, the Englishman Murray comes into this match as the No. 2 seed in the field and he’s coming off a win over the No. 13 seed in Milos Raonic. Murray looks set to add yet another trophy to his case, but to do so, he’ll have to take down the top seed of the tournament.

Now as has probably been the case for a lot of people throughout this tournament, given the time difference there is probably a little bit of confusion as to when exactly this match will get underway. Australia’s time zone is vastly different from that here in the United States, so it’s hard to keep track.

Well, to watch this match live, you’re going to have to be up before the sun rises. The match will get underway at 3:30 a.m. ET and you can watch it live on ESPN or stream it on the WatchESPN app.
