Darts Tips: World Championship Day 12 Monday Predictions & Odds

We move onto Monday at the Ally Pally as a whole host of players look to avoid ruining this year’s Christmas dinner.
Squeaking through to the third round is top of every players’ Christmas list at this stage and we’ve got some big hitters taking to the oche in an electric day of action.
Darts Tips: World Championship Day 12
Check out the Free Bets top betting tips for Day 12 of the 2026 PDC World Darts Championship, featuring the best picks and latest odds.
Tip 1: Nathan Aspinall to win, under 3.5 sets & Aspinall over 4.5 180s vs Leonard Gates at 5/2 with bet365
Leonard Gates is one of the true entertainers at the Ally Pally, but he has a ceiling.
A 3-2 win over Mickey Mansell in the opening round came courtesy of an 87 average and the American won’t come close to victory over Nathan Aspinall if he repeats this type of performance.
Aspinall is back looking healthy after an injury-plagued year and his 94 average against Lourence Ilagen was the perfect start to his campaign.
Aspinall has the ability to sweep Gates here at a canter, moving into the third round for a seventh time in North London.
Tip 2: Luke Humphries - Over 4.5 180s vs Paul Lim at Evens with bet365
Unfortunately for Paul Lim, this looks like one of the most one-sided second round matches on the slate.
Lim is another fan-favourite, but at 71 years old the “Singapore Slinger” will struggle to keep pace with the former world champion.
Humphries doesn’t look in the mood to mess around this year and a 3-0 victory is on the cards as “Cool Hand” moves into another third round match.
At least five maximums for Humphries looks good at Evens.
Tip 3: Charlie Manby to beat Adam Sevada at 4/9 with bet365
Manby was one of the stars of the opening round knocking out Cameron Menzies on his debut, but we’re not sure he’s quite done yet inside the Ally Pally.
The 20-year-old looked competent in all areas on the oche and has drawn a plum tie in the second round against American Adam Sevada.
Sevada edged out Matt Campbell 3-1 with an 88 average — if Manby can continue his impressive finishing with the crowd behind him, he’s got a great chance of advancing with relative ease.
