Premier League Darts Week 2: Prediction, Tips and Odds

Week 2 of the 2025 Premier League sees the eight PDC stars toeing the oche at the OVO Hydro in Glasgow.

Luke Humphries will arrive at the venue on top of the table after beating Chris Dobey 6-1 in last Thursday's final in Belfast.

Luke Littler is the 15/8 favourite in Glasgow, but the youngster is yet to win a title since his World Championship success at Alexandra Palace and fell at the first hurdle against Michael van Gerwen a week ago.

Premier League Darts Week 2 betting tips and predictions

Gerwyn Price to win - 7/1

Luke Littler and Luke Humphries head the betting as usual as the Premier League bandwagon rolls north of the border for the first time, to the OVO Hydro in Glasgow.

The two Lukes emerged from 2024 as the two stand-out throwers in the world and the view is that is still the case.

Humphries, perhaps taken aback by the manner of his World Championship loss to Peter Wright, has taken a while to get going in 2025, but wins at the World Masters and last week's Premier League opener tell us nothing much is wrong with his game.

As for Littler, the 18-year-old is yet to win anything this year though there wasn't much wrong with his game in Belfast where he managed to lose his quarter-final to Van Gerwen despite an average a fraction shy of 114.

At the World Masters he was bundled out in the last eight by Jonny Clayton - yet his lowest average in the three games he played was 104. His game is good and the wins will come.

Right now, though, he probably looks short enough given that he will first have to beat Rob Cross - twice a winner over the last few weeks - in the last eight and then either recently-crowned Bahrain Masters champion Stephen Bunting or his conqueror from last Thursday, Van Gerwen, in the semis.

And then, in the final, it's going to be one of Humphries, Chris Dobey, Nathan Aspinall or Gerwyn Price.

It's early days but there are hints this could be a vintage Premier League in terms of quality - Humphries and Littler having raised everyone's game - and Price is the type who will benefit.

The Welshman has gone on record as saying Littler's emergence is good for his own game as well as the sport in general, and there is a real spring in the Iceman's step in 2025, something that was missing last year.

He started the year by reaching the final of the Bahrain Masters and bounced back from last Thursday's first-hurdle fall at Dobey's hands to win the second Players Championship event in Wigan on Tuesday, his first ranking success in over a year.

That means he takes winning confidence to Scotland where, as one of the two non-English players in the field, he might get a fair crack from a famously raucous crowd.

He's 7/1 to get up at the OVO, a trim from last week which may not quite reflect the trajectory Price's season is threatening to go in.

Luke Littler 102.5 average or more v Rob Cross - 1/1

Luke Littler and Rob Cross kick off proceedings in Glasgow with Voltage surely confident of landing a surprise.

Cross has picked up his scoring this year and been rewarded with wins at the Dutch Masters and in Monday's opening Players Championship event on the floor in Wigan.

Interestingly, 24 hours later he threw really badly in a first-round defeat to Mickey Mansell.

They met five times in the Premier League last year and Cross won one of them while he also beat the Nuke at the Grand Prix, so he knows he's got the game for this toughest of assignments.

But Littler is also throwing wonderfully, just without the trophies at the end of the day. Last Thursday, as mentioned, he lobbed in a 113.91 in defeat against Van Gerwen.

Littler and Cross produced a first-round thriller at this stage 12 months ago - albeit in Berlin - with the current world champion averaging 104 in a 6-5 win.

His average has been set at 102.5 against Cross and that's a number he can breeze through on a regular basis. Voltage will bring out the best in Littler so expect him to register a big number.

Stephen Bunting to beat Michael van Gerwen - 11/10

Van Gerwen had a tough draw last Thursday, edging Littler 6-5 before losing by the same score to Humphries.

He scored well and showed signs that he is getting back to his old self.

The Dutchman has had a week off so is well rested to take on Bunting - though it's the Liverpudlian who looks the value.

The Bullet fell at the first a week ago, beaten by Cross, but he is throwing better than ever and already has a title this year, triumphing in Bahrain.
