Chris Dobey vs Jermaine Wattimena prediction
Chris Dobey made the semi-finals of the World Grand Prix on his debut in 2019, but he hasn't matched that run since and has crashed out at the first hurdle in each of the last two years.
Hollywood tends to fare better on the floor event these days but he remains in the top 16 of the PDC rankings and is still a serious operator on his day.
Just one place behind him in the rankings is Jermaine Wattimena, who has been steadily climbing up the ladder and his trajectory is perhaps going in the opposite direction to Dobey's.
There should be fairly little in this but we see Wattimena squeezing through in three sets.
