Think winners will be, for the rest of matches today Momota Li/Liu Ginting Matsutomo/Takahasi Minions
If CL cant beat Momota who can... especially AA. Ginting still has more chance (at least a rubber match)
Ginting lost to Momota more than 3 or 4 times lately. So, Probably, AA have a chance or Chen Long if both of them follow the discipline.
Same framing as usual - Chen Long really is much better (Searching for his form for 3 three years, but "coming back"), Momota is "in form" and "wasn't really tested at the WC" (funny old form that, lasting for 1 1/2 years).
But it is true Momota was not tested, he did not drop a single game. It just shows how much ahead of others he is. But I don't buy this Chen Long coming back narrative. He may win today but for him it is trying to stay relevant when talking about potential Tokyo medalists. He also won one tournament last year after world championships when most players were already tired after long season. And that victory did not change anything in big picture. My prediction is that Chen Long wins today but tomorrow Antonsen will beat him.
huh? Momota toying Antonsen 21-9, 21-3 in their last meeting couple months ago. What make AA have a better chance than Ginting?
Well, Ginting will love playing against ChenLong. Beaten him last year here. Whats the H2H between Chen and Momota?
