Joe Cullen vs Paolo Nebrida prediction

Nebrida played very well against world number two Luke Humphries before Humphries eventually ran out a 5-3 winner.

The Filipino averaged 91.03 but took three of his five checkout opportunities to cause Humphries some alarm.

He now takes on Joe Cullen, who is making his first appearance in the competition since 2022, when he reached the quarter-finals, and he will enjoy the opportunity to return to Wolverhampton.

Cullen knows he cannot afford any complacency against Nebrida, who is always a threat and showed on Saturday that he is playing pretty well right now.

Cullen also knows he simply has to win, with Humphries waiting in the third group match, and that puts a degree of pressure on him. Nebrida is more than capable of pushing this all the way.

While we have to prefer Cullen, we would like to see how he settles early on, and we can see Nebrida taking this deep. Consider the legs market.

Joe Cullen vs Paolo Nebrida tip: Over 7.5 total legs
