Levon Aronian (3.5) – Peter Svidler (3.5)
Alexander Morozevich (2.0) – Magnus Carlsen (4.5)
What are your predictions?
Chess Daily News from Susan Polgar
Topalov will make big comeback!
“Topalov will make big comeback!”
How do you know? Are you doing the signals this time?
My prediction is
Leko – Ivanchuk 1/2
Anand – Topalov 1-0
Aronian – Svidler 1/2
Morozevich – Carlsen 0-1
Leko-Ivanchouk :1/2
Anand – Topalov :1-0
Aronian – Svidler : 1/2
Morozevich – Carlsen : 1-0
My questions is: Can Morozevich pull of the double-feat of winning his first game this tournament and beating Carlsen for the first time in his career? This is my pick for game to watch.
Peter Leko – Vassily Ivanchuk 1/2
Vishy Anand – Veselin Topalov 1-0
Levon Aronian Peter Svidler 1/2
Morozevich – Magnus Carlsen 1/2
Anand-Topalov 0-1 in Najdorf, Sicilian.
If Morozevich wins against Carlsen he will be one of the top three in Linares
Magnus is always best against player who wants to win against him, so i think we wil se firework from Carlsen after complications from Moro!

If Morozevich wins against Carlsen he’ll be one of the guys who won in Round 8!
Vishy and Topo will not take changes and settle for a draw. Later Anand will take changes which he is doing very frequently these days.
Carlsen Morazevich 1-0
Aronan Svidler 1/2
DRAWgon Leko will be in his usual draw mode!
