Darts Tips: Premier League Liverpool Week 12 Predictions & Odds
Jonny Clayton will look to tighten his grip on top spot in the Premier League Darts standings as the travelling show rolls into Liverpool on Thursday.
Night 12 takes place at the M&S Bank Arena, where Clayton faces home favourite Stephen Bunting, aiming to build on his five-point cushion at the summit.
The Welsh number one has been relentless this season, racking up four nightly victories across the opening 11 weeks — including back-to-back wins in Brighton and Rotterdam.
A former champion in this event, Clayton has already beaten Bunting twice in three meetings during this year’s campaign. And while qualification for Finals Night in May looks all but secure, his appetite for piling up nightly wins shows no sign of easing.
Darts Tips: Premier League Liverpool
Elsewhere, Josh Rock is continuing his streak of semi-final runs to ensure he stays alive in this year’s standings.
The Northern Irishman has been at the foot of the table all season, but is the only man not to lose a quarter-final fixture since Night 8.
Liverpool’s slate also pits the two Lukes together at the first hurdle as they renew their rivalry.
Let’s take a look at three of the best darts tips for tonight's games.
Gian van Veen to beat Gerwyn Price at 11/8 with bet365
Gerwyn Price’s form has taken a hit with back-to-back quarter-final eliminations, and he’ll be looking over his shoulder in an attempt to keep hold of third spot.
Gian van Veen has either lost his quarter-final or finished runner-up across all weeks of the Premier League so far, and we’re backing him to extend the latter against a bruised Welshman.
Van Veen trails 1-3 in their Premier League head-to-heads, but 11/8 is a nice price for the Dutchman to close the gap.
Josh Rock to win the match, most 180s and highest checkout vs Michael van Gerwen at 9/1 with Paddy Power
Josh Rock is definitely on the up.
“Rocky” played well at the weekend’s European Darts Grand Prix and was unlucky in a 6-5 loss at the third round stage — add to that his four back-to-back quarter-final wins in the Premier League and there’s enough to suggest he could sweep aside MVG.
Van Gerwen is still one of the most unpredictable players on the tour and a 9/1 price for Rock to win the individual arguments is too good to ignore.
Luke Humphries vs Luke Littler - Over 10.5 legs at 11/4 with bet365
Luke Littler has been head and shoulders above his old adversary, Luke Humphries, in the Premier League so far this season, enjoying an 11-point buffer over the man he took the world number one spot from.
But even though Humphries is still winless this campaign, expect him to up his game against the teenager.
These two have had some classics over the years and have shared 6-5 scorelines in their last four meetings.
