Hendry V O'Sullivan
Match of The Round!
Look at the stats and once again, it is a bit of a non-contest.
O'Sullivan has averaged over 12 points per frame more than the Great Hendry this season, and is making a century break in every eight frames.
It is not all down to stats though.
Who would have thought that Stephen would get the better of the improving Ryan Day? We certainly didn't!
But surely, this is a different story. The Rocket has the utmost respect for Hendry and will be looking to inflict a similar scoreline to the last time they met at this stage in 2004, when the Londoner won 17-4.
It may not be that comfortable, but as long as The Real O'Sullivan shows up, then we can only see one way traffic.
