The Huya streaming platform is currently airing the Northern Ireland Open Snooker, featuring national players Xu Yichen, Yao Pengcheng, and Lan Yuhao.

The competition uses a best-of-seven frames format, and the current live scores of the three matches are shown below.

1. Yao Pengcheng leads Dahdi 2-1.
2. Lan Yuhao and Harley are tied at 2-2.
3. Xu Yichen is trailing Song Shawa 1-2.

These three national players are competing and are all expected to secure wins and move on to the next stage.

1. Yao Pengcheng’s opponent is the strongest; it depends on whether Yao can withstand the pressure.
2. Lan Yuhao is stronger than his opponent and, barring any surprises, should be able to defeat him and advance to the next round.
3. Although Xu Yichen is ranked lower than his opponent, remember that just a few days ago at the Xi’an Grand Prix qualifiers, Xu eliminated a player ranked much higher than himself. Therefore, it is likely that Xu Yichen will also win and proceed to the next round.
