Having both won one of the two previous Series events so far, Ronnie O’Sullivan and Judd Trump are both level at the top of the leaderboard.
Neil Robertson is some distance behind in third, with Ali Carter a touch behind The Melbourne Machine.
Stuart Bingham and David Gilbert sealed their spots in North Wales with impressive showings in last week’s Gibraltar Open.
First Round Odds
Our traders don’t expect Trump and the Rocket to have too many issues in their first-round matches. They’re 2/5 and 2/9 to beat Mark Williams and Bingham respectively.
The other two matches look much harder to call. World number one Mark Selby (4/5) only narrowly edges out Robertson (evens) in the betting, while it’s just as tight between Mark Allen (4/5) and Kyren Wilson (evens).
Outright Odds
We’ve got O’Sullivan as 6/5 favourite to go all the way, with Trump back at 4/1. Selby is out at 7/1, with all other entrants at 15/2 or longer.
As the two market leaders are on the same side of the draw, a semi-final clash is in the offing if they both win their opening matches.
They’re locked on 12 wins each from their previous 24 meetings. But O’Sullivan has won all four of their previous semi-finals against each other.
Selby & O’Sullivan is the likeliest final match-up at 9/2. The number one ranking could also be on the line in what would be a titanic showdown.
