Stephen Bunting vs Andrew Gilding prediction
2026 has so far not been as successful for Stephen Bunting as 2025 was, but there is still time to rectify that as he prepares to compete in the World Grand Prix for the 12th time im his career.
The Bullet is a two-time semi-finalist at the double-start event and really needs a deep run to put himself in the conversation for next year's Premier League.
Andrew Gilding can be a tricky customer on his day but he hasn't shown a great deal on the TV stage in recent times. A victory in a Players Championship event this years shows that his game is still there from time to time, but Bunting looks to have the edge in this one.
