It will come as no surprise that Federer has dominated the history of the Swiss Indoors Basel, reaching more finals and picking up more silverware than any other player.
Since its 1995 inception, Federer has advanced to the final 11 times and won six of those. He is the reigning champion having won last year's version.
His list of accolades in Basel overcame Stefan Edberg's previous leadership of the tournament - the veteran Swede now coaches Federer.
But the top seed will be hunted down by Wawrinka, the world No 4, a compatriot who he has shared a sketchy relationship with over the years.
Rafael Nadal enters as the third seed, aiming to build on his progress in China and piece back together his Grand Slam-winning potential.
The likes of Kevin Anderson, Richard Gasquet and John Isner represent tough outsiders while Marin Cilic, Ivo Karlovic and Grigor Dimitrov are also present.
