Simon Dalton presents his prediction for the 2024 German Masters qualifying match.
Gary Wilson
Gary Wilson can be proud of himself after defending his Scottish Open title. Yes, he was lucky enough in the semi-finals when he was about to be eliminated, playing in an awful style and making too many mistakes that no player of his level is supposed to make. Anyway, Gary has a series of seven consecutive wins. Although no one could believe at the beginning of the season that Wilson would reach something serious in the upcoming tournaments. However, he failed to reach the top 16, securing 17th position.
Scott Donaldson
It’s hard to predict Scott Donaldson’s result. They likely depend on his mood and many other factors. Scott was eliminated from the Scottish Open in the round of last 64 after suffering defeat from Joe O’Connor (1:4). Donaldson played against Jack Lisowski twice, in October and November, losing in both cases, but at least winning 3-4 frames. Yes, sometimes he can be eliminated without any struggling, but it’s not always the case for the results.
Gary Wilson – Scott Donaldson prediction
These players have had only two head-to-head games, with both being won by Scott Donaldson. I don’t think that Scott will be able to do this again. However, he can win at least three frames, I believe.
