If there is a tie in the first place, a play-off match of two blitz games (3 minutes with a 2 seconds increment per move as of the first move), will be played to decide the winner. This will be followed, if needed, by ‘sudden death’ games.

Mishra - Grandelius also ends in a draw. It was a well-fought game, but on move 24 most pieces were exchanged and the game derived into an endgame with opposite color bishops.
Mishra could have probably tried 23.cxd4 to fight for the initiative.

Grandelius - Gukesh ends in a draw. It seemed as if 16.Bxh7 was home preparation, aimed at lurking Black's king into perpetual check. But, judging from the time spent and the stress he went through, it seems Nils found this at the chess board.

After 17 moves, Mishra - Grandelius has reached an interesting and unbalanced position, with both Kings in the centre. White probably has easier play, as it enjoys a space advantage, the bishop's pair, and has more potential targets for the attack.
