Round 2 - Head to Head

stephen hendry v ali carter

A re-match of the Malta Cup quarter-final earlier this year, which Carter won. Hendry blamed a 'dodgy' curry for a bout of sickness and a sleepless night before though. The Cuef@cts indicate that the seven-times world champion will get the better this time around though. He outscores the wannabe pilot in almost all categories and should be comfortable in getting to the last eight. Carter won't be afraid of snooker's Greatest Ever, but over 25 frames we think the Scot will land the win.
