Andy Murray always seems to get his year off to a good start and this could be one he'll never forget. His wife is expecting and Murray would love to bring his first ever Australian Open title back home with him. He keeps on making the final here but has yet to win one, if he does get through to the final he has the massive job of getting past Novak Djokovic to lift the trophy. He's reached this far with just the loss of two sets (both the second set) but knows this will be his hardest game so far. In six previous meetings with Raonic, Murray has won three and lost three. They shared their two encounters in 2014 and their only match last year saw Murray beat Raonic in the French Open. Perhaps significantly, Murray has never lost to Raonic in a Grand Slam tournament. His opponent has dropped three sets so far, all in the last two rounds. He led Stan Wawrinka by two sets to love before being pegged back to two sets all but won the all-important final set. The Quarter finals saw him beat Gaels Monfils in four sets. He's in form but Murray looks in better form and can get through to another Grand Slam Final.
