The 34-year-old from Telford meets Sean Storey in the final qualifying round at Prestatyn over the best of 17 frames.
The prize for the winner is a trip to the Barbican Centre in York and a first round proper clash with King, who has twice beaten Gunnell in final qualifying for the World Championships.
But the extra ranking points on offer in the second biggest tournament will provide Gunnell's focus tomorrow.
"It would be nice to have another crack at Mark King but I'm not even thinking about York," he said.
