Overall Higgins Leads 2-1

Not much to go on between John Higgins and Kyren Wilson in the past But the one big match they have played was here 12 months ago and Higgins gave Kyren a lesson winning 13-6.

Can Kyren take revenge and reach the showcase final at the Crucible?

I think having lost to this very same opponent last year might spur Kyren even more to beat Higgins.

I'm probably going against most of the people here (GJ excluded) but I think Kyren will beat Higgins.

But depends how well he settles early on and adapts to the one-table setup.

Tough Match for Kyren in his first ever 4 session match its new territory and the strange thing for him will be not to panic if he goes 7-1 down because John will still need 10 more frames to win.

5-3 in the next 2 sessions and its 13-11 going in to the final session and i would back anyone that reach a last 4 here to win a session 5-3.

I think this could pan out like the 2005 semi between Murphy and Ebdon. Higgins settles early before Wilson has a big session to get back in it.

Ones thing for sure is we will be sick of hearing and seeing Wilson’s “wonderful” family

I'm blocked what does it say ?


'Class Act' John Higgins is.

Is he really?

Have we all forgotten?

I will never forget how it felt.

As ever. Loads of tweets on my Higgins view. I was on here when it happened. Steve Davis was in tears, I was in tears. I can't forgive how he made me feel. Sorry. He is a great player but I don't want him winning this again. Give me grief if you like, I don't care.

I'm not posting it to slate him. I just think it's interesting that someone like snookerbacker who often gets mentioned on BBC has such strong views on him.

No it wouldn't.

He has lost many finals. Hasn't affected him.

Getting to two in a row will give him more confidence. Losing in continual first rounds would be worse.
