6+ 180s in Josh Rock v Gerwyn Price

The match I’m really focused on is Josh Rock against Gerwyn Price. I’ve been looking at the numbers and their previous meetings, and there have been some huge averages. Their match at the World Matchplay last year really stood out, and shortly before that, they played on the Players Championship circuit, where Josh Rock averaged 110 and still lost. He’s also beaten Price with an average of 111, so the quality is clearly there.

Both players are big scorers when it comes to 180s. Josh Rock is still on zero points and needs something to spark his campaign. Facing Gerwyn Price — who won in Dublin last year and clearly enjoys the venue — won’t be easy.

Because of that, I expect plenty of 180s in this match. Paddy Power are offering 4/5 for over 5.5 total 180s, and I really like that bet.

Luke Humphries to Win (v Jonny Clayton)

For the second part of my boosted double, I’m going to the final match of the night. Luke Humphries, who won in Dublin in 2024, reached the final last week but lost to Jonny Clayton — and I’ve rarely seen him so disappointed. He shook Clayton’s hand and left the venue within minutes of the winning dart.

He’s one of the few players yet to win a night this season, and I really thought last week would be his moment. Now he faces a tough task — he’s up last and plays Jonny Clayton again.

You might think I’m taking a risk here, but I’m backing Luke Humphries. At 1/2 to win the match, he’s my second selection in the boosted double alongside the over 5.5 180s in the Rock vs Price match.

In fact, I’m going one step further — I think Luke Humphries wins the night in Dublin. It feels like his moment to deliver.
