Andy Murray's US Open second-round opponent Robin Haase says that he is confident of causing an upset.

Andy Murray's second-round opponent Robin Haase is confident of causing an upset at Flushing Meadows this evening.

The world number 41 has played in the biggest tennis arenas against the likes of Andy Roddick, Lleyton Hewitt and Rafael Nadal, leading the latter 2-1 at Wimbledon before losing in five sets.

"I've played Nadal, Hewitt, Djokovic here, I'm used to the big courts. I'm looking forward to another one. Against Nadal I almost made it and now I hope I can do it," Haase said.

The 24-year-old Dutchman beat Murray in their only previous meeting in Rotterdam in 2008.

"If you look at my results, I can beat almost anyone," he added.

"I'll definitely have to keep my percentage of errors really low, because he's not making any errors most of the time.

"I'll have to be healthy and be there mentally for every point. And of course I need to serve well. I just need to play my best game and hit a lot of winners."
