Initially, the match between David Navara and Ding Liren was scheduled for last year but when Ding Liren had a biking accident during the Norway Chess Tournament 2018 he had to cancel. But this year Ding Liren is ready to play David Navara. In the second match Jan Timman plays against Thai Dai Van Ngyuen, Czech's best junior.
