Judd Trump vs Mark Williams Prediction: Trump expected to change the narratives in this game

The second day of the Shanghai Masters will see Judd Trump play Mark Williams in round ⅛ to the finals. Mark Williams won the last game of this meeting and will look to dominate here. Can Trump prove a point?

Judd Trump

Judd Trump has been disappointing recently and will look to turn the tables in this one. Last time out, Judd Trump played Robert Milkins in the Helsinki International Cup and lost 4-2. However, a look at his last five games saw him lose three, with two others coming against Mark Williams and Jak Jones. Yet, Judd Trump was able to pick wins in his matches against Tom Ford and Hossein Vafaei. Coming into this game, the bookies favor Judd Trump, and we can expect him to step up his game.

Mark Williams

Mark Williams has been incredible in recent times, and in this game, he will look to keep things running. Last time out, Mark Williams played against Wang Xinbo in the Shanghai Masters day one encounter, which ended 6-3. However, prior games to that encounter saw him lose consecutive games against Scott Donaldson and Ali Carter in games that ended 1-3 identical games. Yet, Mark Williams has lost just two games of his last 11 competitive games. 

Expert Betting Tips

Mark Willams showed that he has what it takes to prove a point in a fixture like this, and his run of games to this has been amazing. However, looking at Judd Trump's odds and the fact that he has struggled lately, I expect him to do better in this fixture. This should be a very tight encounter, but Judd Trump should win in a game ending with many points.
