Ali Carter vs Allan Taylor Prediction

Carter recently demonstrated his resilience by coming from a 1–3 deficit to beat Oliver Lines 6–3, reeling off five frames in a row and even scoring a 116 break in the process. This success continues his trend of capitalizing on opportunities – for example, in 2020, Carter only entered the Masters as a late replacement, yet he still went on to reach the final of that prestigious event. With this momentum and his big-match experience, I believe Carter will emerge victorious in this matchup.
