England To Win the World Cup

It’s easy to build a strong case for England in their bid for back-to-back World Cup triumphs. England lifted last year's trophy with relative ease and they now represent an even more formidable proposition with Luke Humphries teaming up with Luke Littler this time around.

No other pairing in this year’s showpiece come anywhere close to Humphries and Littler in terms of overall quality. The English duo have cemented themselves as the two best darts players on the planet over the last couple of years, each winning multiple major titles with impressive consistency.

Littler and Humphries sit first and second, respectively, with their seasonal averages in 2025, and they are also well-renowned for being two of the most frequent 180 hitters on the PDC circuit. In fact, teenage sensation Littler has crashed in a PDC-high 476 180s across 2025, while world number one Humphries has tallied 293 maximums to date. Thus, it’s easy to see why England are being backed for another successful World Cup showing.


Canada To Win Group F

Canada look more than capable of claiming top honours in Group F. The Canadians have been a regular mainstay on the World Cup scene since making their debut during the inaugural tournament back in 2010. In fact, Canada have outperformed their pre-tournament odds to reach the quarter-final stage on three occasions over the last nine years, failing to emerge from their group only once across that period. 

While another run to the last-eight may be beyond Canadian duo Matt Campbell and Jim Long, they should prove too strong for Group F foes Denmark and Malaysia. The Danes’ World Cup record doesn't make for great reading, having never gone beyond the second round, and it’s difficult to envisage that changing this year with Andreas Hyllgaardshus and Benjamin Reus teaming up for the first time. As for Malaysia, they were an early casualty on their return to the World Cup stage last year following a 10-year absence. Malaysia lost to Canada 12 months ago before going on to finish bottom of the group, and another wooden spoon could be heading their way.


Sweden to Win Group G

Sweden look well placed to navigate their way out of Group G at this year's World Cup of Darts.  A group-stage draw alongside France and Lithuania could have been kinder, but the Swedes have shown signs of progress in each of their last two appearances at the World Cup. In fact, back-to-back runs to the quarter-final stage over the last couple of years represents Sweden’s best-ever efforts in this competition. 

For the second year in succession, Jeffrey de Graaf and Oskar Lukasiak will be toeing the oche for Sweden. De Graaf has produced a string of eye-catching displays on the PDC circuit over the past 12 months, most notably defeating Gary Anderson en route to the fourth round of the World Darts Championship.

While there is certainly talent in the French team too, Sweden’s superior World Cup pedigree in recent years could give them the edge in Group G. The French have featured in just three World Cups to date, failing to make a splash on each occasion. Similarly, Group G outsiders Lithuania have not progressed beyond the second round across each of the last six years, exiting at the group stage in both 2023 and 2024 respectively.

ABC's Darts Predictions are back once more for this year's World Cup of Darts and our experts have identified their favourite outright selections for Thursday's action in Frankfurt, as 40 nations battle it out for the trophy.

After lifting the title for the first time since 2016 last year, England will be looking to successfully defend their crown in Germany this weekend.

With Luke Humphries and Luke Littler leading the charge for England this time around, it would take a brave man to bet against them being the last pair standing on Sunday.

It’s difficult to look beyond England in their quest for back-to-back World Cup  titles. This year's pairing of Luke Humpheries and Luke Littler will be the highest ranked team in the tournament and they will represent one of the most fearsome duos to have ever toed the oche at a World Cup.

The two players have established themselves as the dominant forces in darts over the last 18 months, hoovering up multiple major titles between them. On top of that, both Littler and Humphries boast the highest averages across the PDC circuit this calendar year, with their respective tallies reading 100.99 and 99.66.

The two arrowsmiths were consistently a cut above the rest of the field during the recent Premier League season, placing first and second respectively with room to spare. What’s more, the duo contested five of the 16 weekly finals in this season’s Premier League, as well as the final at the O2 Arena.

While this will be the first time that Humphries and Littler have paired up for a World Cup,  they are close friends away from the oche, so they should have no issues in striking up a partnership in their pursuit of glory.

If anyone can upstage England and knock them off their perch, it could be Wales. The Welsh duo of Gerwyn Price and Jonny Clayton are a close-knit unit, not to mention they  have course and distance form in their locker in this competition, having previously led their country to World Cup glory on two occasions. Moreover, each of those two triumphs have arrived over the last five years, with Price and Clayton picking up the prize in both 2020 and 2023. It’s also worth noting that the duo finished as runners-up to Australia back in 2022.

Wales' World Cup chances are further boosted by Price looking much more like his old self of late. ‘The Iceman’ produced a string of impressive displays in this year’s Premier League, securing a spot in the play-offs two weeks before the end of the regular season. Similarly, Clayton has been ticking along nicely in 2025, recently rising to 5th spot in the world rankings off the back of his Dutch Darts Championship success. Thus, everything points towards Wales being there or thereabouts in their latest crack at conquering the world.

While Belgium’s World Cup record doesn't inspire confidence, they will be led by a new and talented pairing that could well upset the odds in Germany this year. For the first time ever, the Belgian charge will be led by a dangerous looking duo in the shape of Dimitri Van den Bergh and Mike De Decker. 

Van den Bergh has long had a reputation as a tough nut to crack on the oche, while De Decker will make his World Cup debut as a major champion after beating Luke Humphries to win the World Grand Prix last October.

While this will be the first time that De Decker and Van den Bergh have teamed up together on the World Cup stage, their contrasting styles could well complement one another in their joint shot at glory. De Decker is a fast-paced and heavy scorer, while Van den Bergh is a much more methodical  operator.  If the pair can claim a couple of confidence-boosting wins during the group stages, then a deep run at this year’s darting festival is not beyond the realms of possibility.

Our Darts Betting Tips & Predictions are back for this year's Premier League Darts, and Andy’s Bet Club will be covering the action every Thursday.
