MVG to win twice in Birmingham

Follow our Premier League Darts acca

Sky Sports set-up camp at the Barclaycard Arena, Birmingham on Thursday for the latest outing from the Premier League Dart season. Ever-popular Michael van Gerwen plays twice, and will win twice, according to our traders.

Phil Taylor beat Gary Anderson last week in an upset, but was then himself on the wrong end of a shock when losing to Dave Chisnall in what looked a gimme beforehand. We have run through the latest round of matches, and offer our views on a handy accumulator. £10 pays £95.

Lewis beat Wade

James Wade continued to blow hot-and-cold in this tournament, losing 7-3 to Peter Wright in Belfast when expected to mount a serious challenge. He’ll lose again this time, if our thinking is correct, when matched with Jackpot, who remains within touching distance of the top-four. Lewis let us down last week, but we’re hopeful he’ll make up for it here at an honest 5/6.

Van Gerwen beat Chisnall

What a round Chizzy had last time, beating Adrian Lewis in the first game of the night, before reloading and shooting down Phil Taylor in their top of the bill tussle. No one saw that coming, probably not even Dave Chisnall himself, but it has lifted him to within two points of the top-four. Unfortunately, the fixture list is against him and we back Mighty with confidence here. MVG is a convincing pace-setter and joins our team at 2/9.

Wright beat Taylor

Game of the night, without any doubt, matches second with third. Wright continues to force the issue at the top end of the table, currently sitting second with just two points to find to match MVG. He beat James Wade with minimal fuss last time, while it’s difficult to ignore Taylor’s loss to Chisnall. That sticks in my throat and I doubt The Power will see qualification this year, which is sad. Snakebite looks a gift at 10/11.
