Ronnie OSullivan v Mark King World Open Snooker Betting

Ronnie O’Sullivan and Mark King conclude the round of 64 today with Jimmy White awaiting the winner in the next round. The best of five format has offered a few shock results so far including Mark Selby being put out by Barry Hawkins last night and Shaun Murphy being whitewashed by Dave Harold. King will be hoping that he can add to that list by beating The Rocket this lunch time.

Snooker fans all know the drill when backing Ronnie in any match. It really does depend on what mood he is in when he turns up. Those who watched Thursday evening’s Premier League action saw a prime example of this as moments of brilliance were interspersed with bouts of lackadaisical positional play.

These two have met six times in the past and can boast three wins apiece from those meetings. However, it is over 2 ½ years since they last met.

This short format means that there can always be an argument made for the outsider and I think at odds of 5/2, with Boyle Sports, King is worth a bet in the match odds market. If you want to be a little more conservative then you can get odds of 20/21 on King +1.5 frame in the handicap betting.
