JOHN HIGGINS VS TIAN PENGFEI PREDICTION
Any player who has come through three rounds of qualifying to reach the main draw should be taken seriously and that is exactly what Tian Pengfei did earlier this week, but ultimately it is difficult to see him upsetting the odds against such a complete player as John Higgins. The four-time world champion almost always brings his best game to the Crucible and off the back of a year that has seen him win the Players Championship and reach at least the semi-finals of a further three tournaments, he is expected to embark on another deep run over the next two weeks. It will take a good player to stop the Wizard of Wishaw at this event, and while Pengfei's abilities are not to be dismissed, he is likely to come up short against the vastly experienced Scot.
