Mark Williams vs Bai Yulu Prediction: Williams will be unstoppable

Oღn day two of the Champion of Champions snooker 2024 tournament, Mark Williams will play Bai Yulu at Toughsheet Community Sไtadium. The two players will head into this game, hoping to show character. How will this fixture unfold?

Mark Williams will hope for a better performance in this year’s Championꦇ of Champions, and as a favorite in this game, we can expect him to be at his best. In his last tournament, Mark Williams lost to Chris Wakelin in the round ⅛ of the International Championship in China, having defeated Thepchaiya Un-Nooh and Mark Davis in prior encounters. In the meantime, Mark Williams has only twice in his last eight games, one other against Kyren Wilson. However, the Englishman picked up wins over Ma Hailong, Noppon Saengkham, Jamie Rhys Clarke, and Haris Tahir. 

Bai Yulu comes in as the heavy underdog and will look to show character. In his last encounter, the Chinese struggle🐬d, losing to Bulcsu Revesz in t💧he Scottish Open qualifier. However, looking at the 21-year-old born in recent games, he found victory only once, being a walkover win over Marco Fu in the Northern Ireland Open. In the meantime, other encounters ended in defeats against David Gilbert, David Grace, Dean Young, Lei Peifan, Mark Allen, and Sijun Yuan.

Bai Yulu has no chance in this encounter, and I expect Mark Williams to take advantage here. While Mark Wiliams has the experience, his level of play is just on another lౠevel with competitive performances against tougher opponents. This is a big test for Bai Yulu, and I do not see him having a chance.
