 Murray reached the last 16 in Indian Wells in 2008 |
Andy Murray is keeping expectations low as he prepares to take on Paul-Henri Mathieu in Indian Wells on Monday. The British number one is making his way back after a debilitating virus, and takes on the Frenchman at 1800 GMT. Murray, who beat Albert Montanes 7-5 6-3 in the second round on Friday, says his focus is to get fully fit for the next Masters 1000 event in Miami. "I'm definitely not looking past the next match," the 21-year-old Scot told BBC Sport.  | 606: DEBATE |
"Mathieu is a very good player. I've had some tough matches with him in the past, especially on hard courts. "If I want to win that one I'll have to play better than on Friday." Murray, who has a 2-0 career record against world number 33 Mathieu, has already set his sights on victory at his next tournament. "I want to try and win Miami," said the British number one. "The aim right now is to get into the best possible shape for that tournament because I can't say, if I'm being honest and realistic, that I'm coming here thinking I'm going to win. "I'll just try to improve my game, get fitter, get used to playing matches again and hopefully, come Miami, I'll be playing well again."
