Ding Junhui and Ricky Walden kick off their 2011 Championship League Snooker campaign on Monday as Group Five gets underway.
To watch the live broadcast of Ding Junhui v Ricky Walden go to Bet365>livestreaming>snooker from 1145 GMT.
Today sees Group Five take centre stage once more with Mark King, Matthew Stevens, Mark Allen, Ding Junhui, Ryan Day, Ricky Walden and Liang Wenbo battling it out to join Mark Selby, Mark Williams, Shaun Murphy and Ali Carter in the Winners Group.
In each group every player will play each other once in a best of five frame match after which the top four players will contest in the play offs – semi-finals and final over the best of five frames.
Players will be awarded one point for each match won, then most frames won and the least frames lost in the league series will determine their position in the league table. Dead frames will not be played in either the league or knock-out stages.
The play-off winner will progress to the final league of the Championship League Snooker while the players coming sixth and seventh in the group will be relegated and will not feature in any further group matches.
Ding is currently ranked fourth in the world and will be looking to qualify for the Winners Group at the first attempt, while Walden will be up against it and is ranked as number 15 in the world.
