Pre-match Analysis
In the first match, Shang Juncheng still has a good chance to win since his opponent is not very well-known and may not have superior skills compared to Shang Juncheng.
In the second match, Bu Yunchaokete lacks offensive power against Deminar and is likely to be swept aside, as Deminar is a world-class player far above Bu Yunchaokete's level.
The third match is a domestic derby. Wang Xinyu is expected to defeat Zhang Shuai and advance to the next round, reaching the last 32. Although top players like Height and Paolini will compete tomorrow, this match is the most anticipated event because it's the China Open.
