Robert Milkins vs Ryan Day Prediction: This is an open encounter for grab

The World Championship League resumes at Crucible Theatre this Monday, and in one of the matchups, Robert Milkins and Ryan Day will square it off. The two players will head into this game, hoping for a crucial result. I will look into the game's analysis and provide the best betting options. 

Robert Milkins

Robert Milkins pulled off a much-needed win in the qualification round of the World Open against Farakh Ajaib, which ended 5-2. In the meantime, Robert Milkins has won three of his last five games, defeating Haydon Pinhey and Dott Graham. However, Robert Milkins lost to Jackson Page and Martin O'Donnell. The Englishman is the underdog coming into this game, and he will have to approach this game with his best strategy to win. 

Ryan Day

Ryan Day's last game in this Champions League was against Hossein Vafaei, and he lost. In a five-frame game, Ryan Day lost 3-1 while scoring his lone point after scoring two points behind. However, Ryan Day has lost three of his last five games, the first two against Chris Wakelin and Hossein Vafaei. Heading into this game, Ryan Day has picked up wins over Gary Wilson and Jak Jones. While he is the favourite, Ryan Day will hope to get things right again, as he hopes to return to winning ways. 

Expert Betting Tips

I do not see Ryan Day winning this game despite his good record in this fixture. Looking at the two players' performances lately, I feel this game is open for the two professionals. While the experience favours Robert Milkins, I will gladly back him even though I know he will not have an easy task. Also, with the two players doing relatively well, I expect this game to end with a tight scoreline and, therefore, a bet on high frames.
