Stat worth knowing
Van Veen's record this season is the most statistically confusing in the competition. Four finals reached, zero wins. The quarter-final stage is where he is most dangerous — he has converted every QF he has played. Clayton has beaten him twice. The edge belongs to Clayton, but van Veen has the tools to cause problems early.
Pre-match verdict was
Clayton is the strongest pick on the card. Van Veen's quarter-final record is the only statistical argument against it.
