Before last two rounds Carlsen retains a half a point lead over - TopicsExpress



          

Before last two rounds Carlsen retains a half a point lead over So. They are followed by three players at seven points, Ding, Vachier-Lagrave and Giri. Carlsen will today take black against Ding and on Sunday white against Saric, last years b-group winner. Sos last two games are against Netherlands players, today hell have black against Giri and on Sunday white against van Wely, at the moment at three and a half points. Vachier-Lagrave will today have white against Aronian and on Sunday black against Caruana, while Giris and Dings Sunday games are with black against Wojtaszek and Aronian, respectively. I suppose its not yet a mathematical necessity that the winner will come from the five leading players, but it seems pretty likely, and most probable seem the top two. It seems like a full point today for both of them would require some toil and luck, while on Sunday maybe a full point should be do-able for them.
