Confident Milos Raonic has Andy Murray in sights in Australian Open semi-final

Canada’s Milos Raonic wants to lay to rest the ghost of his last grand slam semi-final exit at Wimbledon in 2014 by beating Andy Murray at the Australian Open.

The pair will meet for the seventh time in their careers tomorrow at Melbourne Park after Raonic beat Frenchman Gael Monfils 6-3 3-6 6-3 6-4 and Murray battled past Spain’s David Ferrer 6-3 6-7 (5/7) 6-2 6-3.

The current head-to-head record stands at three wins each but Murray has more experience of the big occasion as he makes his 18th semi-final appearance against Raonic’s second.
