Thanks for link Dean. Was worried I’d be scrambling at the last minute to find it.

Some cracking ties in that draw. Really looking forward to it.

OMG, Ronnie against Gilbert in R1. Luca against Noppon in R1, Ding against Kyren in R1 and Murphy against Maguire in R1 are some of the highlights of this draw.

Uh Nooh " Uh No ....not HIGGINS AGAIN "

[kligu]

Some very intriguing first round matches. Can we post our predictions here or will there be another thread?

[neuronic]

Too bad for Dave... he has never beaten Ronnie and I don't think he will any time soon. Ronnie safely in round two.

Of all possible first round match-ups this one surely is the worst for Shaun... Stephen traditionally is extra motivated against Shaun (the chalk incident), this is going to be 50:50. Kinda knew they would draw this one

I don't think it would be a cake walk for Ronnie. Dave has a good chance although their head to head is in your favour. I would say Higgins' is a cake walk in R1.

David Gilbert should have not said anything!

Mark Selby vs Jamie Jones
Yan Bingtao vs Chris Wakelin
Barry Hawkins vs Jackson Page
Mark Williams vs Michael White
Kyren Wilson vs Ding Junhui
Stuart Bingham vs Lyu Haotian
Anthony McGill vs Liam Highfield
Judd Trump vs Hossein Vafaei
Neil Robertson vs Ashley Hugill
Jack Lisowski vs Matthew Stevens
Luca Brecel vs Noppon Saengkham
John Higgins vs Thepchaiya Un-Nooh
Zhao Xintong vs Jamie Clarke
Shaun Murphy vs Stephen Maguire
Mark Allen vs Scott Donaldson
Ronnie O’Sullivan vs David Gilbert

un - nooh looked very good against matt selt , if he keeps that up it could go either way and i find higgins very dull tbh , in that quarter i'll be rooting for a thai player in the quarter final , also i think jamie clarke can beat zhao xintong and chris wakelin can trouble yan bingtao.

Agreed John is not feeling great after his defeat against Neil. John on the other hand will get a nice confidence boost playing Un Nooh. He steam rolled Ronnie the last few times. Un Nooh is a similar type of a player.

[Starsky]

There are some great matches drawn there , bring it on .

I like the look of Stevens and Lisowski

[balkend]

I hope Uh Nooh beats Higgins , I have a

[balkend]

I have a quid on Un Nooh at hundred to one but its wishful thinking , Higgins will probably win

[Delphi]

I know Luca is playing Noppon Saengkham but is there a schedule yet for who's playing when?
