Up against Wesley Plaisier, a good player, a young player from Holland, a World Master in the WDF system and for me a player on the up. I expect the game to be close, but Wesley Plaisier is going into this match as an 8/11 favourite against Lukas Wenig.

That may surprise some based on the form that Lukas is in, but for me, Wesley just gets over the line in that one.

Darren is a top notch player, not the ideal for a player who is bang rank out of form. It might surprise some people that I'm going for Dimitri. I know how hard he's practicing with his brothers.

When you put him on a stage, similar to Joe Cullen, he just comes alive. It's been a dreadful season, but that can change with a good run at the World Championships.

He's second favourite going into the game incredibly. At even money with Paddy Power, I'm going to go for Dimitri van den Bergh to get over the line in that one.
