Judd Trump vs Zhengyi Fan Prediction: Trump will win with ease

Judd Trump and Zhengyi Fan are scheduled to compete in the third day of the Snooker World Open at the Yushan Sport Centre. Who will emerge victorious in this match?

Judd Trump recently claimed a 5-2 victory over Sanderson Lam in the World Open, marking his third win in his last five games. Among these victories were matches against Shaun Murphy, which ended 4-3, and Thor Chaun Leong, where Trump won 5-2. However, Trump also suffered defeats against Ali Carter and Ronnie O'Sullivan during this period.

Zhengyi Fan recently secured a victory against David Gilbert in the first match of the World Open, marking his second win in the last six games. Among these matches, he also triumphed over Ricky Walden in a 1-3 encounter. However, he faced defeats against Kyren Wilson, Joe O'Connor, Sam Craige, and Junxu Pang during this period. As he approaches his upcoming match, Zhengyi Fan finds himself once again as the underdog, facing the second-ranked player in the world, Judd Trump, who had previously defeated him in 2020. Therefore, Fan will need to elevate his game, display resilience, and give his all to secure a victory.

Judd Trump is considered the stronger player in this matchup, with Zhengyi Fan being known for his inconsistency. Although their previous meeting, which Trump won, may not definitively determine the outcome of this game, I believe Trump will continue to assert his dominance and secure another victory. Additionally, I expect the total number of frames to be relatively low.
