While Chris Dobey is without a win in the Premier League since Night 1, he has certainly not been struggling when it comes to hitting 180s. He has averaged 3.75 maximums per game across the opening six weeks of the season, an average bettered only by Luke Littler’s 5.0.

On top of that, ‘Hollywood’ has lost the 180 battle in just one of his eight matches in this year’s Premier League, hitting more maximums than his opponent in five of those contests. With that in mind, Dobey merits support to hit the most 180s when he goes up against Stephen Bunting.

Not only is Bunting propping up the Premier League table with zero points, but he has also hit the fewest 180s off the eight-man field at this juncture, hitting 18 maximums thus far. That return can be attributed to ‘The Bullet’ coming up short on the 180 count in four of the six quarter-final ties that he has contested to date, with his opponent out-maxing him in three of his last five outings.

It’s hard to look past Luke Littler to hit the most 180s in his quarter-final tie with Nathan Aspinall on Thursday night. The teenage sensation has been hitting 180s for fun in this year’s Premier League, racking up no fewer than 70 maximums across the first six stops on the 17-week roadshow.

Last week in Nottingham, Littler hit more 180s than each of his three opponents, ending the night with an overall tally of 16. That means ‘The Nuke’ has unfurled the most 180s in each of his last six Premier League assignments.

One of those matches was against Nathan Aspinall in Brighton a fortnight ago, with Littler landing five 180s to Aspinall’s two. What’s more, Littler took top honours on the 180 front by the exact same scoreline when the pair crossed paths in Exeter on Night 4. It’s also worth noting that Littler tallied the most 180s when the duo met at the World Darts Championships at the beginning of the year.

With a raucous Welsh crowd behind him, Gerwyn Price looks well placed to hit the most 180s in his quarter-final clash with Rob Cross on Thursday night. ‘The Iceman’ seems to have found his mojo again after a difficult period, claiming his second nightly win in this year’s Premier League in Nottingham last Thursday.

Price’s upturn in form has coincided with him hitting 180s on a consistent basis since the turn of the year. In fact, only Luke Littler (294) and Beau Greaves (228) have hit more maximums than Price (155) across the entire PDC in 2025. The Welshman won the 180 battle 4-2 when defeating Michael van Gerwen last week and he is more than capable of repeating the trick against Rob Cross.

While Cross has already delivered a nine-dart finish in this year’s Premier League, he is not renowned for being a serial 180 hitter, with only Stephen Bunting (18) hitting fewer maximums than ‘Voltage’ (24) at this stage of the competition. Moreover, Cross has lost the 180 duel in seven of his 10 outings in this season’s Premier League, including each of his two matches in Nottingham last week.
