Rob Cross vs Krzysztof Kciuk Tips

Rob Cross looks the one to be on here as he has won three out of four matches against Kciuk, winning the last two by the same 6-1 scoreline.

On paper, Rob Cross is a strong favourite to win against the lower-ranked Krzysztof Kciuk. However, Kciuk should not be underestimated; he convincingly defeated Cross 6-1 at European Tour 1 in 2022. Playing on home soil in Poland, Kciuk will also be highly motivated. Meanwhile, Cross comes into the match out of form, having lost his last two games, 8-4 to Stephen Bunting and 6-0 to Danny Lauby Jr.

Over 3.5 total 180s will win. Cross’s steady 180 output, paired with Kciuk’s occasional maximums, should push the total past three in a competitive match.

Rob Cross has won the last two matches against Kciuk beating him 6-1 both times in Players Championship matches, and they have met twice in Euro Tour events with Rob hitting four 180s and Kciuk hitting only one.

Now might be the ideal time to play against Rob Cross who maybe isn't at his very best form right now, bad defeat in his most recent match. Rob is up against an opponent who has ability, playing quite well just lately so i think number of 180's thrown in this match will be close.

Rob Cross is definitely the better player with more experience at this level of tournament, should be doing well but he did lose badly in his most recent match, his opponent today will have taken confidence from that and that can see his opponent stay close enough to at least cover this handicap.

Kciuk played 4 times against Cross so far, and in the last 3 meetings, he only won 1 leg. I also expect an easy win for Cross today.
