Our Best Bet
Luke Humphries to Win Night 9 | |
3/1 - odds when tipped | |
Reasoning Humphries has a favorable draw and recent form that suggests a big night is looming. A high-quality run to last week's final, alongside his ability to outperform opponents on scoring and averages, gives him the edge. With Littler’s route fraught with threats, Humphries stands out as the top value play. |
With four quarter-final clashes ready to launch from 7:15pm at the Uber Arena, Thursday’s action promises a blend of high-stakes drama and technical excellence.
The night opens with a crucial meeting between Nathan Aspinall and Stephen Bunting. Aspinall finds himself two points shy of the Play-Off spots, while Bunting, still chasing a first Premier League victory, enters buoyed by his recent ProTour performances. His form in the Players Championship, particularly the 111.72 average against Mike De Decker, highlights a player in rhythm – though translating that into league success has proved elusive so far.
Following that opener, Luke Humphries and Rob Cross square off in what looks to be a tactical contest. Their last meeting saw Humphries hit a nine-darter only to fall to Cross’s remarkable 111 average. With Humphries having reached the final last week and Cross riding back-to-back wins over Gerwyn Price, there’s a real sense that both are peaking at a critical juncture.

The spotlight inevitably shifts to Luke Littler, the teenage sensation, as he takes on Chris Dobey in a rematch from Night Five. Littler edged Dobey in Brighton, and with the chance to secure a record-breaking fifth nightly win, all eyes will be on how he handles the pressure in Berlin.
The final quarter-final pits Michael van Gerwen against Gerwyn Price. With both men trading wins in recent encounters, including a European Tour battle that saw Van Gerwen recover from a 4-1 deficit, this promises to be a fiercely contested affair. Price, though nursing an injury, arrives off the back of a Players Championship victory, adding another layer of intrigue to this battle.

Best Bet for the Day: Luke Humphries to Win Night 9
Despite the overwhelming dominance of Luke Littler in recent weeks, tonight’s conditions and form metrics point towards Luke Humphries as the most compelling selection to triumph in Berlin.
Humphries’ route to the final appears more forgiving compared to Littler’s. Facing Rob Cross first – whom he has already pushed to the limit recently with a nine-dart leg – Humphries has a strong platform to reassert his top form. Though that loss in Brighton sparked a trio of quarter-final exits, his recovery last week in reaching the Night Eight final signals a return to consistency. Crucially, he now sits five points clear in second place, showing his ability to bounce back amid adversity.
Should he progress, Humphries would likely face either Aspinall or Bunting in the semi-finals. Both are struggling for stability, with Bunting still yet to win a match and Aspinall slipping behind in the race for the top four. This semi-final path looks far less turbulent than the route Littler faces, which may include a rematch with Price – the only player to hold a six-match win streak over him.
Additionally, the BettingTips4You Expert Rating supports Humphries’ recent performances as being high-quality, particularly in scoring power. His challenge will rest on finishing, but signs of improvement last week suggest he’s ready to deliver across all departments.
With Littler likely to attract heavy backing, value lies with Humphries, who offers both form and opportunity on a night where the draw may prove decisive.
