THE PREDICTION

Both Premier League debutant Jonny Clayton and late stand-in James Wade have an identical record of four wins, two draws and three defeats after the first nine games of this year’s competition but Wade edges his opponent out of the playoff places courtesy or a superior leg difference. The Machine was also a 7-2 victor in their high-quality league meeting two weeks ago so the experienced left-hander will feel he has his opponent’s number here. However, Clayton has shown so far that he belongs in the Premier League and is certainly capable of beating any of the other nine competitors. Both players opted to skip the recent Super Series so they will be raring to go here, and this is expected to be a closer match than their first contest. Therefore, the suggestion is to back over 12.5 legs.
