Trump vs Dylan Emery Prediction 31 August 2026

Judd Trump is enjoying a strong run of form, picking up seven wins in his last ten matches a testament to his consistency over the stretch. During this span, he has racked up an impressive 49 breaks of fifty or more, including 10 centuries, with his highest break reaching 142. Even factoring in his recent heavy defeat (1-5) to Chang Bingyu at the previous event, Trump’s overall trajectory points to confident, controlled snooker, with the ability to dictate the pace through sustained scoring runs. Opponents have also managed to notch up high breaks against him 30 in ten matches, eight of which were centuries but Judd continues to lead in terms of frames won and table time. His style is best described as attacking, with a clear emphasis on building long scoring sequences something clearly reflected in his break-building stats and high frame conversion rate.

Dylan Emery’s recent form leaves much to be desired: with just four wins in his last ten matches and five defeats, it’s clear he’s struggling to find consistency. When it comes to heavy scoring visits, Emery also trails his opponent he’s managed only 17 breaks of fifty or more, while his rivals have compiled 18 such runs against him. His most recent outing ended in a 1-5 defeat, further highlighting his lack of stability even against lower-ranked opposition. Notably, Emery has reached his peak break (130) just once in this stretch, and such flashes have been far too rare for him to pose a serious threat to the tournament favorites.
