Andy Murray will play his first match since September 20 in the Valencia Open later today.

Murray, the top seed, will take on Spanish wild card Daniel Gimeno-Traver in the first round.

The world number four has not played since winning both his singles matches in Great Britain's Davis Cup defeat to Poland in Liverpool.

The 22-year-old has been suffering with a wrist injury but told his personal website: "The wrist is fine.

"I'm still icing it and exercising it but it's tough to do too much about it specifically.

"I've played two matches in nine weeks, so I wouldn't be surprised if I play poorly at first, but I will try my best."
