Shaun Murphy v Neil Robertson Tips

While this will be a razor-thin contest, Robertson's more consistent all-around game and superior tactical play give him the decisive edge. Murphy's aggressive style can be his downfall against a player who can grind him down with safety.

Murphy is in sharp form with four wins from five, including dominant scorelines, and holds a slight head-to-head edge in big matches. Robertson is classy, but Murphy’s momentum tips it.

This match is expected to go down to the wire, with a final frame decider being a distinct possibility. Robertson's superior mental fortitude and ability to close out tight matches give him the edge to win by the narrowest of margins.
