I hope Wang Hao won’t chicken out.
Naka can draw Hao and he still will win, given that Anand wont’ be able to win with black against Nepo. A draw in both games spells victory for Nakamura.
Topa can win this one.
I wouldn’t underestimate Anand. Naka needs the win.
I won’t be surprised if Anand drew quickly. Many a times last rounds show lack of energy rather than excitement.
