While many predicted that John Higgins would emerge out of a tricky half to take his place in the final, few expected to see the name of Judd Trump instead of Mark Selby, Ding Junhui or Neil Robertson.Match oddsJohn Higgins is the 8/15 favourite with Betfred to win the 2011 World Snooker Championship final, with the Scot having triumphed in 1998, 2007 and 2009. The Wizard of Wishaw has beaten Ronnie O’Sullivan and Mark Williams to reach the last two and this will be his fifth final appearance.Judd Trump is available at 6/4 with bet365 to follow up his China Open success with victory at the Crucible and the 21-year-old has taken the competition by storm ever since he knocked out reigning champion Neil Robertson on Day One. Trump demonstrated in his semi-final victory against Ding Junhui that he can hold his nerve on the big occasion.We should also note that John Higgins has been involved in far tougher matches in this tournament than Judd Trump. Trump was an easy winner against Martin Gould and Graeme Dott, while Higgins has had to scrap hard to beat Ronnie O’Sullivan and Mark Williams.Handicap bettingThe bookmakers are prepared to offer odds of 10/11 about Judd Trump with a +2.5 frame handicap and that means a winning bet if the Bristol-based player reaches sixteen frames before John Higgins manages eighteen frames.However, there is a school of thought that Higgins might prove too strong for his inexperienced opponent, especially if Trump fails to make his traditional flying start. You can get 10/11 about John Higgins with a -2.5 frame handicap.Frame bettingAfter a magnificent World Snooker Championship, it would be fitting if we were treated to an epic final and it largely depends on whether Judd Trump can make a fast start against one of the greatest players in modern snooker. If the 21-year-old can get his nose in front after the first session, he will have the belief to win the final. However, if Higgins gets a stranglehold on the game, it could be a comfortable win for the Scot.RECOMMENDATIONSJudd Trump to win 18-16Judd Trump to win 18-15 Read our Betfred review Get your £50 free bet at Betfred now Like Like Post to wall 621 Reads All Snooker News Recent Snooker Articles World Snooker Championship 2013 Odds - Ronnie Favourite To Defend Crucible Crown08 May 2012Ronnie O'Sullivan has been installed as the early favourite for next year's World Snooker Champions Ronnie O'Sullivan winning slide show08 May 2012Ronnie O’Sullivan wins the 2012 Betfred World Snooker Championship Ronnie O'Sullivan 13/2 for fifth world snooker title in 201308 May 2012Ronnie O’Sullivan looks sure to defend his World Snooker Championship title in 2013 – but has warne Ronnie O'Sullivan 16/1 to break World Snooker Championship title record08 May 2012Ronnie O'Sullivan is taking a break from snooker but Ladbrokes are backing 'The Rocket' to return a O'Sullivan Within Touching Distance of Fourth World Title07 May 2012Ronnie O'Sullivan leads Ali Carter 15-10 after their penultimate session this afternoon and needs j Will Ronnie O’Sullivan announce his retirement from snooker tonight?07 May 2012Ronnie O’Sullivan has indicated he could be set to quit snooker on Monday evening after his 2012 Wo More Stories Recent Articles Longchamp Tips: Aigles to soar in Prix d'Ispahan26 May 2012The feature event at Longchamp on Sunday is the Prix d'Ispahan (14:45), which Goldikova won in 2010 Norway v England Result – Young gives Hodgson debut win26 May 2012Ashley Young netted the only goal of the game as England gave new boss Roy Hodgson a winning start Venus Williams v Paula Ormaechea - French Open live stream26 May 2012Venus Williams will make a start to her French Open campaign with a match against Paula Ormaechea o Russian Grannies proving popular on Eurovision26 May 2012The Eurovision Song Contest final begins shortly in Baku with StanJames.com reporting money for the League One Play-off Final Result – Huddersfield promoted after penalty shootout26 May 2012Huddersfield Town earned promotion to the Championship after beating Sheffield United, 8-7 on penal No Deposit Required Free Bets26 May 2012Is there such a thing as a free bet?
