Head to Head


Luca Brecel leads the head-to-head 3-1 including winning the last meeting in the Championship League in 2022.

Luca Brecel Form


Luca Brecel is still without a title since being crowned world champion in May 2023, but did end 2024 in relatively strong fashion.

The Belgian had a tough start to the season, failing to make the main draw for the Wuhan Open and International Championship and withdrawing from the Xi'an Grand Prix.

Brecel reached the second round of the English and Northern Ireland Opens and the third round of the British Open before early exits at the Champion of Champions and UK Championship.

He rediscovered his best form in December, however, following a quarter-final in the Scottish Open with a run to the final of the Riyadh Snooker Championship. He lost to Mark Allen in the decider.

Chris Wakelin Form


Chris Wakelin has had a solid season to date, including reaching the final of the International Championship before losing to Ding Junhui.

Wakelin has reached the semi-finals of the English Open and the quarter-finals of the Wuhan Open and last month Scottish Open. 

Wakelin had a busy start to the year in the Championship League, but had a 8-10 win-loss across five days of action. 

Verdict

Luca Brecel enjoyed a strong run of form to end 2024 well and I'm backing the Belgian to get the better of Chris Wakelin in this first round clash at the Masters.
