It was straightforward - Judd took an average of 19.4 seconds per shot. It seems the favorite is heading into the decisive clashes in peak form. Stopping this version of Trump is no easy task.

John Higgins Player Overview
The Scotsman barely survived against Xiao Guodong, turning a 2-5 frame deficit into a 6-5 victory. It was a match between two evenly matched opponents, both statistically and in skill, but luck played a decisive role as the Scotsman suddenly stopped making mistakes. Such a game usually takes a toll, and considering that Trump has more time to recover his mental state, Higgins' chances diminish further. However, snooker is full of surprises, and Johnβs experience should not be underestimated. Higgins' season stats show a win percentage of 70, with 134 breaks over 50 points and 27 century breaks, but no maximum breaks.

Editorial Prediction
The season's stats favor the world ranking leader. Trump is gaining momentum in Telford, having started off cautiously, but now he seems unstoppable. Against him, Higgins appears much more modest, especially considering their two head-to-head losses this season. We believe the favorite will secure a victory and advance to the final. Our bet is on Judd Trump to win with a -1.5 handicap.
