PDC Premier League - Birmingham

Week 11 is nigh! Who is the mystery tipster backing this week?

The Premier League trucks roll into Birmingham (UK) this week and it’s getting exciting as we are starting the run in to the finals. Every leg is vital here and the games are:

James Wade v Mark Webster
Terry Jenkins v Raymond van Barneveld
Simon Whitlock v Gary Anderson
Phil Taylor v Adrian Lewis

James Wade v Mark Webster

Good opening game here. Mark has been in some rotten form but has been known to do very well on occasions. James will be too strong here. He really has dragged himself back to the form he was in last year and I am predicting a possible defence of his title, but can he beat Taylor in the form he is in? We’ll see. 8-3 with some good finishes to The Machine.

180’s 6

Highest Finish 130

Winner: James Wade

Terry Jenkins v Raymond van Barneveld

This has the potential to be the best match with both capable of turning any game on its head, with a spurt of form. This game will be nip and tuck and see-saw action. 8-6 to Barneveld.

180’s 8

Highest Finish 141

Winner: Raymond van Barneveld

Simon Whitlock v Gary Anderson

This for me is a future World Final (not sure when but sometime soon) as they are both capable of being world champions! Simon seems to be picking his form up again, and Gary been has excellent this season, just a couple of blips midway through.180s galore in this one and the high finish to boot. 8-5 to Anderson.

180’s 10+

Highest finish 161

Winner: Gary Anderson

AND THE MAAAAAAAAAAAAAIN EVENT!!!!!!!

Taylor v Lewis

The last time these two played Lewis had a 110 average and got beat 8-3. Can anyone stop The Power? In that form, don’t bother to try, but as the Mrs says “You’re only as good as you last match”! So is the form still there? Expect tense action and solid darts by both 8-6 the score line here but flip a coin. Taylor for me with his form and experience.

180’s 10+

Highest Finish 170

Winner: Phil Taylor
