Premier League Darts Betting Tips & Preview: Night 8 - Rotterdam
Premier League Darts goes Dutch with the first of a jubilant double-header in the great city of Rotterdam this Wednesday. Dutch darting heroes Raymond van Barneveld and Michael van Gerwen return home for what will undoubtedly be a rousing reception. Having back to back nights in Rotterdam worked so well last year, even if it came about by accident, that the PDC decided to do it all over again in 2019.
Here are our darts betting tips for the 2019 Premier League Darts Night 8 in Rotterdam.
Premier League Darts Tips
Where Is The Value?
GERWYN PRICE to beat MICHAEL SMITH - 6/4*
This Premier League Darts season has really not gone the way Michael Smith will have wanted. After reaching not only the play-offs but subsequently the final in last year’s Premier League, he will have hoped to have been challenging at the top by this stage. However, the man from St Helens is sitting 2nd from bottom and is in massive danger of being eliminated from the competition early, with Judgement Night taking place on Thursday.
Smith is one point ahead of Raymond van Barneveld and desperately needs a win on Wednesday. However, things will not be that easy as Gerwyn Price has shown himself to be a fantastic player throughout this season. Smith also has a history of struggling under real pressure which could also work against him. We are predicting that Smith’s woes will continue as the “Iceman” takes the points, with darts odds of 6/4*.
Other Premier League Darts Betting Predictions - Night Eight:
James Wade vs Dimitri van den Bergh
Sitting pretty in 3rd place is “The Machine” James Wade. Even though his performances have been slightly erratic, he should be proud of his Premier League season so far. Last week saw Wade fight back from a losing position to claim a draw against Peter Wright in an admittedly below-par performance. A match against Contender Dimitri van den Bergh awaits, a game that Wait starts as the favourite in. We also believe he will produce the goods in this one.
Rob Cross vs Mensur Suljovic
TIP: ROB CROSS TO WIN - 20/21*
Many pundits will have expected Michael van Gerwen to be sat at the top of the Premier League darts table at this stage of the season, but it is currently Rob Cross that holds that honour. Fresh off an impressive 7-4 win against Gerwyn Price, Cross takes on Mensur Suljovic on Wednesday in what should be a high-quality contest. Suljovic hammered Michael Smith last week so should not be taken lightly, but we think “Voltage” is going to claim yet another victory to carry on his terrific form. He can be backed at odds of 20/21*.
Peter Wright vs Michael van Gerwen
TIP: MICHAEL VAN GERWEN TO WIN - 10/19*
Michael van Gerwen is on the ropes at the moment, after James Wade and most recently Daryl Gurney have landed metaphorical haymakers on the defending champion. MVG does into every match as a big favourite so it is always a shock when he falls to defeat, such as the 7-5 loss last time out. This time around he is looking for redemption against Peter Wright, who threw away a convincing lead to draw with James Wade last week. Bet UK are tipping MVG to roar back and claim a vital 2 points at odds of 10/19*.
Raymond van Barneveld vs Daryl Gurney
Raymond van Barneveld is fighting for his Premier League life at the moment, as Judgement Night comes this Thursday. Whoever finishes 9th will be relegated and shall exit the competition early, as the rest of the players power on with the play-offs in sight. Barney currently holds that dreaded position but he put himself to within 1 point of Michael Smith in 8th with a gutsy 7-3 win over home favourite Max Hopp in Berlin. Gurney will be full of confidence though after dispatching MVG but Barney will have the entire arena behind him. This one could go all the way for a Draw, at odds of 33/10*.
