Lee Walker vs Gerard Greene Prediction: The two professionals are struggling

This clash sees defending champion Lee Walker take on challenger Gerard Greene at the 2023 Snooker World Senior Championship. If Walker wins, he'll be off to a good start defending his title. 

Lee Walker will compete in this match with the intention of securing a victory in this 1/8 round of the tournament. The Welsh snooker player, Lee Walker, has not been performing at his best in recent matches; therefore, there is a lot of room for improvement for the Welsh cue sports athlete. Although this will be his first match of 2023, he was defeated in his last three matches of 2022 by the likes of Ian Martin, Joshua Thomond, and Mark Selby.

In this match, Gerard Greene is the one who will be considered the underdog. In spite of the fact that the Englishman has been performing poorly and inconsistently as of late, he cannot be written off at this point. Gerard Greene has only one victory in his previous 12 matches, which is a significant issue regarding how well he will be able to perform up to the task at hand here. In spite of this, we anticipate that Gerard Greene will approach this match with caution while maintaining a high level of play.

The two players are not performing at a high level, and we cannot depend on either one of them very much. However, we are of the opinion that Lee Walker can perform better in this match, despite the fact that it is anticipated to be a challenging one for him.
