Adam Williams presents his prediction for the Xi'an Grand Prix snooker match.
Judd Trump
Judd Trump beat Jak Jones 5:1 in the quarter-finals with a high break of 52. This is very surprising from the 2019 World Champion, but at the same time not so surprising, because this is exactly the kind of snooker Jak Jones plays. Trump also confidently beat Lu Haotian 5:1 and Ma Hailong 5:0. Judd has not lost a single match this season, winning the Shanghai Masters and now Judd can win the second tournament in a row.
David Gilbert
David Gilbert also has not lost a single match this season, and Gilbert played in three groups of the Championship League, won two qualifying matches and beat Jordan Brown 5:2, Gary Wilson 5:3 and Mark Selby 5:4 in Xi'an. David is well prepared for the season, marked by high breaks. Gilbert was 4:2 up against Mark Selby, Selby made a tie, but Gilbert held his nerve in the deciding game against Mark Selby, which says a lot.
Judd Trump - David Gilbert Prediction
These matches take a lot of emotion, and in the next game a snooker player can repeat this success or play very poorly. I believe in the first scenario, Gilbert is doing well in the Grand Prix and could become the first opponent to take more than two frames from Trump.
