John Higgins v Shaun Murphy live snooker preview

Related Articles
World number one John Higgins will be looking to keep up his 100% record at the Championship League Snooker on Wednesday.

Today sees Group Two take centre stage with Jamie Cope, Ronnie O’Sullivan and Neil Robertson going up against four members of Group One that failed to qualify for the winners group in John Higgins, Ali Carter, Mark Williams and Shaun Murphy.
In each group every player will play each other once in a best of 5 frame match after which the top four players will contest in the play offs – semi-finals and final over the best of 5 frames.

Players will be awarded 1 point for each match won, then most frames won and the least frames lost in the league series will determine their position in the league table. Dead frames will not be played in either the league or knock-out stages.
The play-off winner will progress to the final league of the Championship League Snooker while the players coming sixth and seventh in the group will be relegated and will not feature in any further group matches.

This is Higgins’ third match and he has already defeated Ali Carter and Mark Williams, while Murphy has lost to Williams before beating Neil Robertson.
