11/22/2024 – In the latest episode of "Two Knights Talk", Arne Kähler and Johannes Fischer discuss the World Championship match between defending champion Ding Liren and challenger Gukesh D, which starts on Monday 25th November in Singapore. Eighteen-year-old Gukesh is a heavy favourite and has good chances of becoming the youngest World Champion of all time. But the "Two Knights" wonder if things are as clear-cut as they seem, talk about the appeal and addictive nature of World Championship matches, and venture a prediction on the outcome of the upcoming match.

Video

This entry into the 60 minutes series concentrates on the Modern variation of the Italian game where White opens the centre early : 1 e4 e5 2 Nf3 Nc6 3 Bc4 Nf6 4 d4 exd4 5 e5!. This line can be reached by various move orders, most frequently from the Scotch 3 d4 exd4 4 Bc4. It's a sharp variation and Grandmasters such as Evgeny Sveshnikov have used it frequently,with very good results. It's a perfect line for club players to adopt which is relatively easy to learn and which contains many traps. All the main responses are covered here, including 5...d5, 5...Ng4 and 5...Ne4 and the conclusion is that is is difficult for Black to equalize in a straightforward way. Problems are being posed, which over the board might prove tough to solve.
