Jonny Clayton Current Form – LWWLL
In all honesty, Jonny Clayton has struggled for positive performances in recent weeks. His lacklustre performance against Gerwyn Price is indicative of his struggles, but the important point is that he is through to the round of sixteen and still in with a shot at success!
His loss to Florian Hempel was possibly his worst performance of the season and a repeat effort could see him struggle here. Nevertheless, if he employs his usual bullish approach, his favourite tag is certainly justified!
Martin Schindler Current Form – LLWWL
Martin Schindler can be his own worst enemy! His inconsistency is just simply crimpling and doesn’t allow him to find a platform to launch any serious challenges to major tournaments.
Yes, we might be harsh in saying this, but Schindler is simply a player who flatters to deceive and struggles to realize his potential when it matters. He may not be good all the time, but he has to be good when its time…
He faces an old foe here!
