Where to watch

Eurosport 1, 6.30am & 11.30am Saturday

Preview

It will be a repeat of May's world final when Judd Trump and John Higgins clash in the World Open semi-finals.

Trump held the upper hand in Sheffield at the end of last season, triumphing 18-9, but things could be closer over the best of 11 frames in Yushan.

Both players are in fine form - Trump thrashed Michael Holt 5-1 in the quarter-finals while Higgins dumped in-form Stuart Bingham 5-2 - and Hills could see support for their quote of 1-2 that the clash lasts for over 8.5 frames.

Higgins, who has been showing impressive self-belief this week, can also be considered at 4-7 with a start of 2.5 frames.

Kyren Wilson takes on Dave Gilbert's conqueror Thepchaiya Un-Nooh in the opening semi-final clash at 6.30am.
