Adam Williams presents his prediction for the Xi'an Grand Prix snooker match.
Ronnie O'Sullivan
Matches between Ronnie O'Sullivan and Hussein Vafaei are always tense and memorable. We can remember the German Masters qualifying match, when Ronnie didn't really want to play. The World Championship match, when Hossein said a few bad words and was thrashed by Ronnie 13:2. Ronnie is now seriously preparing for matches with this opponent.
Hossein Vafaei
Hossein beat Dylan Emery 5:3, but he went through to the next round without a match due to Graeme Dott's medical reasons. Hossein really wants to beat Ronnie, and this may hinder him. Ronnie is in better shape now, Ronnie beat Yuan Sijun 5:1 with a great game and good breaks, Ronnie is gradually getting into shape for future matches.
Ronnie O'Sullivan - Hossein Vafaei Prediction
In the upcoming match, I see a confident victory for Ronnie, when O'Sullivan is well motivated, he gives few chances to his opponents, and personal relationships may prevent Hossein from taking advantage of these chances.
