Robert Milkins vs Jackson Page Prediction: Milkins expected to shock Page in this game

Robert Milkins and Jackson Page will face off at Mattioli Arena in Leicester in the World Championship League. This game will be a four-frame encounter. Who wins this game?

Robert Milkins's last game in this Championship League was against Iulian Boiko, and the professional settled for a 2-2 draw. In the meantime, Robert Milkins has not had too much luck in recent matches, having suffered defeats at the hands of David Gilbert and Kyren Wilson. Regardless, Robert Milkins was able to defeat Junxu Pang and Judd Trump in other games of his last five. While this is the first game he will play against Jackson Page, Robert Milkins will hope he can get a win in this encounter and go top of the standings.

Jackson Page will eye a win in this game, having drawn Andrew Higginson in the first game of Group 10 of the World Championship League. However, Jackson Page had lost to Judd Trump and Ronnie O’Sullivan in prior games to the beginning of this World Championship but picked wins against Graham Dott and Noppon Saengkham. Heading into this game as a favorite, Jackson Page will be confident he can show his quality and turn things in his favor. 

I expect this game to be very competitive, with both snooker players expected to give their all. However, Jackson Page has a slight advantage in this game, but with the performances I have seen from Milkins in recent games, a win or draw is a very good option, in a game where we should see many points.
