Bingham vs Anda Prediction 14 August 2026

Bingham has been nearly flawless so far in this tournament. He saw off John Higgins in the opening round, then left Hossein Vafaei with no chance at all in their next encounter. Interestingly, breaks weren’t Bingham’s main weapon in that match; his only break over 50 points was a 73. Instead, the Englishman barely allowed his opponent to get to the table.

This says a lot about the current form of Bingham. He doesn’t need to win every frame with a stylish century. Sometimes, it’s enough to play patiently, wait for an error, and then close things out. Against Vafaei, that approach worked perfectly the Iranian failed to produce a single break over 50 across six frames.

Zhang has battled his way into the quarter-finals through a much more nerve-wracking draw. In the opening round, he edged out Zhao Xintong in a match that was decided on a respotted black. For Zhao, it was a heartbreaking exit, while Zhang surely gained a significant emotional boost from such a dramatic finish.

The next round proved less tense. Anda dispatched Chris Wakelin and once again demonstrated his composure under pressure. Two matches, twelve frames won, and only nine conceded-China’s snooker star is on fire right now, which is hardly surprising given he’s playing on home soil. Overall, it’s tough to claim either player holds a psychological edge. This one will be settled at the table.
