Simon Dalton presents his prediction for the 2024 World Snooker Championship match.
Jack Lisowski
Jack Lisowski beat Ding Junhui in the first round (10:9). It was the first head-to-head game won by Jack Lisowski. Jack Lisowski has become the 7th player who started in the qualification rounds to reach the second round of the main draw. Jack Lisowski plays aggressively. He’s creative. This style usually has positive results. Jack Lisowski has been more successful than Stuart Bingham this season, with more century breaks, which is weird, considering the style of Jack Lisowski.
Stuart Bingham
Stuart Bingham started the game against Gary Wilson rapidly. He was leading 4:0, ending the match 10:5. Bingham has more experience than Lisowski, with more games played in Sheffield. How stable Stuart is remains a complicated question. It affects the results and success in such games depends on this factor. However, Jack Lisowski is a very experienced player with good skills.
Jack Lisowski – Stuart Bingham prediction
I watched the first games of both opponents. Jack Lisowski is my favourite. He managed to end his unsuccessful run in the games against Ding Junhui. I believe that the pragmatic and risky style of Lisowski will beat an old school snooker of Stuart Bingham.
