Andy Murray faces Benoit Paire at the Monte Carlo Masters on Sky Sports 1 on Thursday while Roger Federer and Rafa Nadal are also in action. Having already beaten one Frenchman in the shape of Pierre-Hugues Herbert, it is another for Murray in the last 16 and a first career meeting with Paire.After a run to the semi-final in Marseille in February, Paire came into the event with just one win in his last four matches but has found form to beat Portugals Joao Sousa in the second round having seen off Inigo Cervantes in the first. Murray has never met Paire before but will be wary of his clay court threat, two of the Frenchmans four ATP finals have been on the red dirt including his only title in Sweden in 2015.

Surprise in storeDamir Dzumhur is making a habit of upsetting the big boys, far better than his ranking of 99 suggests, and is more than capable of causing problems for Milos Raonic in their third round encounter, having already beaten Tomas Berdych this week.The pair met in the last 16 in Miami where Raonic ended the Bosnians run in straight sets but Dzumhur had already seen off Rafa Nadal in Florida and will be hopeful of progress.Dzumhur had to qualify for this weeks event which means he has clay-court matches under his belt and adds to his threat while Raonics big serve should earn him the sought of cheap points that may be enough to squeeze through.In case you missed it Novak Djokovic lost, I repeat the world number one, defending champion and previously unbeaten Novak Djokovic was beaten by Czech world number 55 Jiri Vesely.You can watch all the action from Monte Carlo, live on Sky Sports 1 from 9.30am on Thursday morning.By purchasing a Sky Sports Day Pass for £6.99 or Sky Sports Week Pass for £10.99, you can enjoy access to all seven Sky Sports channels and watch on a TV with a NOW TV Box or on a range of devices.
