Matthew Selt vs Ben Woollaston Prediction: Expect this game to be competitive

The British Open qualification encounters continue and on day 2, Matthew Selt will play Ben Woollaston at the Mattioli Arena in Leicester. Selt has dominated this fixture in the past and he comes in as favorites here. Can Woollaston prove himself in this game?

Matthew Selt

Matthew Selt is coming off a win over Liam Pullen in the Wuhan Open qualification which ended 5-2. However, Matthew Selt has an undefeated record of five matches which he undeniably wants to continue here. In that run, Matthew Selt played Florian Nussle, Alexander Ursebacher, and Graham Dott, with each game ending in draws. However, his encounter against Ian Burns ended in a 5-2 win in the China Grand Prix. 

Ben Woollaston

Ben Woollaston will have high hopes in this game after thrashing Oliver Lines 5-1 in the Wuhan Open qualification. However, Ben Woollaston has a good form of performances as he lost just one of his last eight competitive matches. In his lone defeat, Ben Woollaston played Julien Leclerq, while winning three and drawing three others. 

Expert Betting Tips

Woollaston has been incredible lately but I do not trust him against the big guys. Matthew Selt is in fine form into this game and we know what he can do in his best days. While the last game of this fixture ended in a 2-2 draw, I expect more from Selt, who is the most experienced player and a better one. I am backing Matthew Selt to win this game and qualify for the next round.
