Previous matchup: Williams M. 6??'2, 10/01/23. I think Williams M. is one of the best players and has a good chance of beating anyone. I think Williams M. is the better player. Tip: Frame betting ??' Williams M. to win 6??'3.

A best-of-11 format suits both players, especially Gilbert, who often plays better in longer, rhythm-based matches. However, Williams’ tactical control and calm frame management should allow him to edge the tight exchanges. Gilbert will certainly contribute heavy scoring when settled, but Williams’ superior shot selection under pressure favors a close but clear 6-4 finish in his favor.

I think this will be a very good match tonight. As I have gone with the lower-ranked outsider, I will go with the match going the distance.

Gilbert has demonstrated the ability to dominate when his long-potting clicks, winning frames quickly with high breaks. Williams occasionally struggles against aggressive scorers, especially in shorter formats. If Gilbert capitalizes early and maintains momentum, a commanding 6-1 scoreline is realistic, reflecting his superior offensive consistency this season.

Gilbert is a very good player but it is highly doubtful he will get the win, even more so by this scoreline. He only needs to take one off game.
