Gerrard Greene - hoping to make it to the round of 16

In the last five matches for Gerrard Grenne, he won two and lost two. In what is seen as a poor performance, his last two wins is expected to be a big momentum for him going into this match to get a win. The English born Irish professional player is ranked 79 in the snooker world. Gerrard Greene already has two professional trophies in his career, the Poland Masters and the World Games in 2005. With the experience he’s had over years, we hope he can get a win against an in-form Ryan Day in this match.

Ryan Day - favorite to win

Ryan Day will come into this match as a favorite. The English professional snooker player won three of his last five matches. His last two matches ended in a 2-5, and 1-4 loss to 18 year old Wu Yize in the Northern Ireland Open and Ben Wollaston. With his poor last two outings, we expect Ryan Day to bounce back to win ways when he plays Gerrard Greene in this round of 32. However, with Greene’s experience, Ryan Day will have to be in his best form. We believe he will live up to par in this match.
