Chris Wakelin vs Jamie Jones Prediction: A tight contest ahead

This third day of the English Open matchup between Chris Wakelin and Jamie Jones will take place in Brentwood at the Brentwood Centre. Ahead of the start of this match, the odds of winning are tied, and there is no question that this is going to be a close competition. In any case, which one of these two do you believe will proceed to the following round?

Chris Wakelin is coming into this match on the heels of a loss that he suffered at the hands of Gary Wilson in round 1/32 of the British Open. The final score of that match was 4-3. However, prior to that loss, Chris Wakelin had won three straight matches in a row, with scores of 5-2, 4-1, and 6-0, respectively, against Nutcharat Wongharuthai, Lyu Haotian, and Dean Young, respectively. In the meantime, Chris Wakelin will need to be at the top of his game in order to have any chance of winning this match, as he will be competing against one of the best snooker players in the world.

Jamie Jones will go into this round having lost to Julien Leclercq in a match that ended 0-4 in the British Open round on January 32. Julien Leclercq defeated Jamie Jones in the match. In the interim, prior to suffering that loss, Jamie Jones had already triumphed over Liam Pullen in the Wuhan Open, Ross Muir in the English Open, and Ashley Carty in the qualification matches for the International Championship. The final scores of those matches were 5-4, 4-1, and 6-4, respectively. In spite of this, we should still be able to look forward to an outstanding performance from the Welsh player because we anticipate that he will be at his absolute best here.

The previous two meetings that these two players have competed in against one another have both ended in one win apiece, so it is reasonable to anticipate that this match will again be a challenging one. However, in my opinion, Chris Wakelin is already at the top level, and there is no question that this match is going to be a very close one. As a result, I am looking forward to Wakelin winning this match, while Jamie Jones should be able to rack up a number of points, which ought to be able to assist in increasing the overall number of frames.
