Sam Craigie v Yao Pengcheng Tips

Craigie has been unbeaten in the last four games played. The last head-to-head meeting between the players ended in Craigie winning 4-1. I go with Craigie here.

In the first round, 2 of the 3 matches of both players ended in a draw. I also expect a draw in the meeting between the players today.

Sam Craigie is the better player and he did win the 1 previous meeting against this opponent when they met in the British Open only last month, Sam could find today's match more difficult because Yao played well in defeat in that last meeting and Yao has actually improved since then so may do a bit better in today's match.
