Neil Robertson Strength

Neil Robertson will now attempt to make amends for his mistakes and subpar performance in this match against Stuart Bingham. He goes into this match hoping to overturn the poor performance he had recently against Joe O'Connor (0-3), Judd Trump (3-0) and Tom Ford (3-0). 

He Guoqiang's recent form

He Guoqiang has been able to get redemption, getting a win in their last match. So far in the last five matches, they have won three and lost two. In 2024, He Guoqiang was coming off a 10-8 defeat at the hands of Dominic Dale in the qualification round of the World Championship League. However, prior games to that defeat saw He Guoqiang defeat Wang Xinbo, Ross Muir, and Anthony McGill. Despite those good performances, He Guoqiang lost to Sam Craigie, Barry Hawkins, and Daniel Wells. Heading into this game, Guoqiang now faces a tough test as he takes on one of the best snooker players in the world. An excellent debut season for Victoria Snooker professional He Guoqiang continues as he beats Anthony Mcgill 10-5 to proceed to the next stage of the World Snooker Championship. In 2024, Victoria Snooker player He Guoqiang won his Championship League group today and beat Ronnie O’Sullivan by a score margin of 3-0. He Guoqiang, beating Robertson in Xi'an and now Wu Yize this morning, hopefully he kicks on now in this tournament

He Guoqiang Strength

In 2024, He Guoqiang won the rookie of the year award. He is appearing at the UK championship tomorrow and is rapidly rising in the rankings. He Guoqiang comes through a decider with Stan Moody that could’ve gone either way. Both played well in a really enjoyable game for the neutral. He takes his place in the main draw, where he will play John Higgins. John Higgins makes 4 50+ breaks along with a century (110) as he cruises to a 6-0 victory over China’s He Guoqiang. The Scotsman was in control from start to finish and dominated his opponent in the whitewash victory.

All the good takes are from Neil Robertson nowadays. With the qualifiers played much ahead of the main stages, the top stars have to enter much in advance. It should be accepted and calculated, that one or two of them drop out on short notice. Snooker needs a lucky loser system. So I am going for Neil Robertson to get the win.
