Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Andy Murray will all see action in Day 5 of the 2015 Australian Open on Thursday night in Melbourne, Australia.

Federer, who is aiming to win his fifth Australian Open title, will go up against Andreas Seppi of Italy in the third round of this year's competition. The match will be the third match of the first session at Rod Laver Arena, which is scheduled to start at 7 p.m. EST.

The second-seeded Federer was on target in his first two matches, scoring a straight-set win against Lu Yen-Hsu of Chinese Taipei in the first round and a four-setter victory over Simone Bolelli of Italy in the second round.

Nadal will also resume his quest for the elusive second Australian Open title of his career. The third-seeded Spaniard will go up against unseeded Dudi Sela of Israel. Their match will be the second match of the second session, which is scheduled to start Friday, 3 a.m. EST.

The 14-time Grand Slam champion was almost eliminated in the second round against Tim Smyczek of United States. Smyczek took two of the first three sets, but Nadal leaned on his experience to score a come-from-behind victory against his unseeded opponent.

Nadal, who missed the majority of last season due to various injuries, admitted after the match that he is still struggling to regain his rhythm, but he is hoping that he will be in a better condition against Sela on Friday morning.

Aside from Federer and Nadal, sixth seed Andy Murray will also see action in Day 5 of competition. The British tennis superstar will face unseeded Joao Sousa of Portugal at Hisense Arena on Thursday night.

Murray, who has yet to win an Australian Open title in his career, started his campaign with a straight-set win against Yuki Bhambri of India in the first round, followed by another straight-set victory over Marinko Matosevic of Australia.

Maria Sharapova, who escaped with a hard-earned win over Alexandra Panova in the second round, will also see action Friday morning. The second-seeded Russian will go up against 31st seed Zarina Diyas of Kazakhstan.
