No solutions yet, so here is mine.
I found 4 x-wings, which may or may not be necessary. After that:

There is a UR that solves this one pretty quickly.
If you ignore the UR, Advanced Coloring leads to a contradiction.
Or there is the rather long chain:
31-19-94-49-96-64-42-26-63 => r5c1<>3 |

I used two x-wings and a finned x-wing to get to the code posted by gindaani and then took the easy Type 1 UR to complete the puzzle. Later I returned to this puzzle and found a 4-cell xy-chain that does the dirty deed: 51-19-94-45; r3c8<>5.
Also, a Type 4 UR46 and a xy-chain will complete the puzzle.

I used four ERs, two X-Wings, Type 4 UR and an XY-Chain. |
