Jarred Cole vs Dan Read Prediction: A Chance for Jarred to Level the Head-To-Head

After competing in March 2022 in the Online Live League, Jarred and Dan will once again be up against each other in the same series this week. This game is their second head-to-head of the year and will decide whether Dan goes on with the lead or Jarred makes a comeback. 

Jarred’s last two victories were in the WDF World Championship, against Antony Allen 3-0 and Martin Adams 2-0. However, the player suffered a whitewashed loss in his most recent game with Brian Raman, 3-0. During the league, Jarred was defeated by Paul Hogan 4-0 and Dan Read 4-2, before which he claimed 4 successive wins over Gary Blades 4-2, Kurt Parry 4-1, Aaron Beeney 4-1, and Justin Smith 4-1. Cole’s commendable success through the League reflects his potential. Although his recent defeats didn’t highlight a great performance, he will be aiming for a victory to maintain a good record. Furthermore, after facing a loss against Read, Jarred will be keen to level the score by winning the second head-to-head. 

Dan’s game through the league has been slightly inconsistent. Nevertheless, he has been able to pile multiple tremendous wins. Before losing to Robert Owen with a very thin margin of 4-3 in his last game, Read defeated Mathew Dennant 4-2 and Robert Owen 4-2. Moreover, last month, the player scored 6 uninterrupted victories against Robert Owen 4-1, James Richardson 4-1, Matthew Dennant 4-1, Robert Owen 4-2, and twice by Nicky Kenny 4-1, and 4-2. His record says that it wouldn’t be wise to expect a less challenging game. In addition, Dan will undoubtedly be gaining confidence from the first impression he made in the head-to-head and will be looking forward to continuing his lead. 

Jarred and Dan have been doing pretty good recently. Jarred’s victories in the other tournament might be a sign of an improvement in his performance in the League. Nonetheless, Dan’s lead in the head-to-head and overall performance in the League put the odds in his favor. 

• Dan Read to Win for 1.80
• Total Over 5.5 for 1.53
• Total Match 180s, Under 2.5 for 1.72
