Pre-match Predictions
Having three Chinese players in the Welsh Open quarter-finals is already an excellent achievement. Kudos to the Chinese players who advanced to the last eight: Wu Yize, Zhou Yuelong, and Jiang Jun.
For the first quarter-final, I personally believe Neil Robertson has a better chance to win and advance to the semi-finals. After all, Neil Robertson is ranked world number 3, which is higher than Barry Hawkins' ranking of 14.
For the second quarter-final, my personal prediction is that Bingham will defeat Lisowski 5-2 or 5-3, as anyone capable of defeating Zhao Xintong generally possesses solid strength. Therefore, I predict Bingham will win and reach the semi-finals.
For the third quarter-final, I personally give Zhou Yuelong less than a 40% chance of advancing. The "Wizard" title isn't given for nothing; unless Zhou Yuelong produces exceptionally brilliant attacking play and avoids simple defensive errors, an upset victory over Higgins is possible.
For the fourth quarter-final, my prediction is that Wu Yize will defeat Jiang Jun 5-2 or 5-3. As it's an internal team derby where both players know each other's games inside out, causing an upset is difficult. On paper, Wu Yize's strength is indeed significantly greater than Jiang Jun's.
