Editor's Prediction
This matchup seems quite one-sided. Jones clearly falls short statistically against his opponent. On the other hand, Xintong appears like a machine ready to keep going without a pause. Zhao's chances are further boosted by the fact that his opponent lacks practice in long formats this season. Our bet is Zhao Xintong to win with a -2.5 frames handicap.
