on Friday After reaching the final of the Australian Open, Murray took almost a month out of the game before returning successfully with two wins
Millwall striker Steve Morison has warned his team-mates that Bradford will play without fear as they attempt to overturn a two-goal deficit in Friday nights return leg of their Sky Bet League 1 play-off semi-final, live on Sky Sports. Goals from Lee Gregory, Morison and Joe Martin secured Millwall a 3-1 first-leg win at Valley Parade on Sunday after Tony McMahons 13th-minute penalty had given Bradford the lead.Weve spoken about the first leg but since then there has been a lot of hard work done on the training pitch to prepare ourselves for what will be a really tough match, Morison told Millwalls official website, before Fridays match at The Den. Nobody is under any illusions. We know we have one huge job to do and there certainly wont be anybody thinking otherwise.Bradford will have no fear. They have nothing to lose and will throw everything at us, so we have to be ready and prepared for that. We definitely dont want to start like we did in the game last week.To a man we have to be on the front foot right from the first whistle and perform as we have been week-in, week-out this season.The Lions, who finished the regular season just one point above Bradford in the table, hope an intimidating full house at The Den can roar them on to the final at Wembley.The game is a sell-out as it was for the second leg of the 2010 League One play-off semi-final, when Morison scored in a 2-0 defeat of Huddersfield. Millwall went on to secure promotion with a 1-0 win over Swindon.All of the lads have been talking about how the place will be rocking, Morison added. Most of them have not experienced just what The Den is like when its full and Im sure the atmosphere will be great. Rory McArdle will be out to spring a surprise Bradford boss Phil Parkinson, who guided Bradford to League Two play-off success in 2013 having led them to Wembley in the Capital One Cup two months earlier, believes his players can silence the partisan Millwall fans.Millwall will be looking to use the home crowd to their advantage but we have to try and turn that against them, he told Bradfords official website.We need to create a nervousness on the pitch and in the ground. The way we do that is by the manner of our performance. Highlights of Millwalls 3-1 win at Bradford in the League One play-off semi-final first leg There is no pressure on us - everyone has written us off already.

Hanson is sidelined with the same calf injury that has seen the forward miss Citys last two fixtures.

Right-back Mahlon Romeo is suspended, while fellow defender Shaun Cummings is a long-term absentee.Ollies predictionWe tried to change things when we went there to get the wage bill down to an acceptable level and get some young players in team, who had the right hunger. They seem in a much better place now than when I first walked in despite being a league lower. With one of their own in the dugout, the whole club is pulling in the right direction and they should get the job done at the Den.OLLIE PREDICTS: 2-0 (Sky Bet odds 8/1) Morison has issued a warning to his Millwall team-mates Opta statsMillwall are unbeaten in their last five matches against Bradford at the Den, winning the last four (D1).The Bantams have failed to score in their last four visits to Millwall in league competition.The Lions have conceded just one goal in their last eight league games at the Den, winning seven and drawing the other.Only once in their last 14 league away trips have Bradford scored more than once, although, theyve kept six clean sheets.

Andy Murray begins the days action from 11am when he takes on Tomas Berdych.The Scot resumes his rivalry against the big-serving Czech and leads the head-to-head 7-6, having only got himself in front with victories on the last three occasions they have met. A note of caution for Murray is that Berdych has won all three of their clay-court encounters, with the world number two taking just one set in those meetings.The last of those encounters on the red dirt came in 2013 and Murray is a very different beast these days. He comes into the match having shaken off the rust following some understandable time off as a new father. Berdych is Murrays quarter-final opponent on Friday After reaching the final of the Australian Open, Murray took almost a month out of the game before returning successfully with two wins in the Davis Cup.Early exits in Indian Wells and Miami followed, but a semi-final run in Monte Carlo and his form here suggest that he is getting back to his best ahead of the French Open later this monthMurray, the defending champion, was in fine form to see off the potentially awkward Gilles Simon in round three, while Berdych was equally impressive in beating David Ferrer in straight sets. Highlights of Gilles Simon v Andy Murray from the third round of the Madrid Open. Mutua Madrid Open - Quarter Final draw Top Half Novak Djokovic (1) v Milos Raonic (11) Nick Kyrgios v Kei Nishikori (6) Bottom Half Rafa Nadal (5) v Joao Sousa Tomas Berdych (8) v Andy Murray (1) Rafa Nadal is aiming for a third successive tournament victory, having won in Monte Carlo and Barcelona. He is currently on a 12-game winning streak - Sam Querrey his latest victim - and is demonstrating that talk of his demise is premature.That run is unlikely to come to a halt against Portugals Joao Sousa, who has done well to reach a first-ever Masters quarter-final but won only one game in his only previous meeting with the Spaniard. Nadal is expected to come through comfortably. Highlights of Rafael Nadal against Sam Querrey from the third round of the Madrid Open. Masters of their Trade Where do Rafa and Novak rank in the all time Masters list One to WatchNovak Djokovic and Milos Raonic meet in the final match of the day on the main stadium court and it could be a cracker, despite the one-sided nature of their head-to-head - the world number one has won all six previous meetings, including a 6-2 6-0 success at the Indian Wells final earlier this year.dddddddddddd. Andy Murray will take on Tomas Berdych at the Madrid Open, live on Sky Sports Raonic was struck by injury in that match and when he hasnt been sidelined, the Canadians form has been as good as anyone this year. He is up to number 10 in the latest world rankings, claiming one title - the Brisbane International - to go with his runs to the semi-final of the Australian Open and the Indian Wells final.However, Djokovic looked ominously back to his very best with a ruthless 6-2 6-1 destruction of Roberto Bautista Agut in the last 16 and looks to have put his second-round Monte Carlo defeat to Jiri Vesely firmly behind him. Highlights of Novak Djokovic against Roberto Bautista Agut from the third round of the Madrid Open. Surprise in Store?Nick Kyrgios is one of two unseeded players left in the draw and he takes on sixth seed Kei Nishikori in what we have to pick as our surprise, although the game itself could easily have made our one to watch. Nick Kyrgios is enjoying another impressive Masters run Nishikori has been in terrific form without quite getting over the line, reaching the final in each of his last two events (Miami and Barcelona), while Kyrgios has shown a maturity to his game and behaviour this year that has seen him claim a maiden ATP title in Marseille and make a first Masters semi-final in Miami.The 21-year from Canberra will hope to add a second when his faces Nishikori, the man who ended his run in Florida with a straight-sets win in their last-four showdown. 2016 Masters 1000 - Winners Indian Wells Novak Djokovic Miami Novak Djokovic Monte Carlo Rafa Nadal In Case You Missed ItBernard Tomic has been in the news again for all the wrong reasons, despite appearing to have regained his focus for much of the season.And earlier this week, he appeared to give up against Fabio Fognini when he turned his racket upside down to receive at match point down with his handle!
