Fabiano Caruana, one of the very few players ever to cross the 2850 ELO mark, faces Maxime Vachier-Lagrave — 'MVL' — renowned for his razor-sharp play and encyclopaedic knowledge of the Najdorf. The chosen battlefield is the Leningrad Dutch, an opening that thrives on asymmetry and battles for the initiative. Two super-grandmasters who relish imbalance: the perfect recipe for a memorable game.
