Roger Federer says that he is relishing the "challenge" of taking on Novak Djokovic in the final of the BNP Paribas Open.

Roger Federer has said that he is looking forward to facing Novak Djokovic in the final of the BNP Paribas Open on Sunday.

The 32-year-old Swiss defeated Djokovic in the semi-finals of the Dubai Tennis Championships last month and holds a 17-15 record against the world number two.

"It's one of those matches I think we both know what to expect going into, and even more so maybe now that we have just played in Dubai and also in Paris and London at the end of last year," ATP World Tour's official website quotes him as saying.

"I think he's fresh and eager to really try and win this because he hasn't played many tournaments yet this season.

"I think he really wants it, and that's going to be a challenge for me to accept that and fight that with good play myself."

Federer is currently ranked eighth in the world.
