The Huya live streaming platform is broadcasting the Snooker World Open quarter-finals match between Zhang Anda and Vafaei.

This match adopts a best-of-nine format, and currently, both players are competing in the first frame with a total score of 0-0.

Who will win this match and advance to the quarter-finals? Most likely Zhang Anda. Recent encounters between the two: Zhang Anda has won two consecutive matches, giving him a psychological advantage. In the previous round, Zhang Anda defeated Xiao Guodong 5-2, scoring a single-frame high of 138 points, demonstrating outstanding performance. Of course, in the previous round, Vafaei upset Mark Williams 5-2 with a single-frame high of 127 points, showing that his skills are not weak either. It is anticipated that Zhang Anda will leverage his steady form and defensive mastery to control the game. While Vafaei has high accuracy, his aggressive attacks may lack stability. Therefore, personally, I predict Zhang Anda will win against Vafaei 5-3 or 5-4. What do you all think?
