Shocker. Let's see if I can do any better. Round 9 predictions

1/2 Vidit Gujrathi vs Hikaru Nakamura 1/2
1 Gukesh D vs R Praggnanandhaa
1/2 Alireza Firouzja vs Ian Nepomniachtchi 1/2
1/2 Nijat Abasov vs Fabiano Caruana 1/2

1 Koneru Humpy vs Kateryna Lagno
1/2 R Vaishali vs Tan Zhongyi 1/2
1 Lei Tingjie vs Nurgyul Salimova
1 Anna Muzychuk vs Aleksandra Goryachkina

In light of Fabis poor form and Nijat getting the half from Nepo, just tweaked it a bit.
