Snooker fans counting down the hours as Ronnie O'Sullivan and Judd Trump come to Kildare tonight

When Judd Trump and Ronnie O'Sullivan face each other on the snooker table there is always likely to be fireworks and some outrageous shots, but tonight's encounter has all the ingredients to go a step above the norm.

The two superstars are set to play each other in Goff's tonight as the Kill venue hosts a leg of the Snooker Legends series once again this year. There are some extra rules involved in tonight's game however, with players limited to a 30 second shot time in a best of 11 frames match.

O'Sullivan is the current Masters champion and is undoubtedly one of the greatest players to ever pick up a cue, while Trump has consistently been one of the most exciting players on the circuit since he broke onto the professional scene as a 16-year-old in 2005.

The 30 second shot clock ensures that both men will take plenty of risks during the quickfire match, and snooker fans were quick to hoover up tickets as the event sold out in no time. It gets underway at 7pm this evening.
