2024 PDC World Darts Championship day six predictions

There are unlikely to be many more one-sided matches at this year’s World Darts Championships than when 1-33 shot William O’Connor takes on Bhav Patel during Wednesday's afternoon session.

Patel reached this point only after the winner of the Indian Qualifier, in which he was runner up, was suspended for match fixing and he could find himself well out of his depth.

O’Connor is a winner of a PDC floor event and is knocking on the door of the top 32 after another solid year on tour.

By contrast Patel regularly averages in the low 70s on the Challenge Tour and is likely to be outclassed.

O’Connor can show his superiority with a match treble - which is winning the contest, throwing the most 180s and having the highest checkout.

The most highly thought of prospect in recent years, Luke Littler, has already accumulated an impressive CV at just 16 years old.

The fact that the Nuke is shorter in the outright betting than the likes of major winners such as Dimitri Van den Bergh and Danny Noppert shows the regard he is held in. 

The World Youth Champion averaged 102 in the final, throwing seven 180’s across ten legs in his 6-4 win over Gian van Veen.

Months of playing on the Modus Super Series have given Littler plenty of experience against older players and he should be able to see off Christian Kist with a minimum of fuss.

The Dutchman is a solid if unremarkable player who has gone beyond the first round only once in four attempts.

Back Littler to record a comfortable 3-0 success.

Peter Wright faces a tricky second-round match in the final game of the night as he takes on Jim Williams, who reached the final of the last floor event of the season.

The Welshman also won the last meeting between these two players and Wright has made a habit of falling early on in this tournament, departing in the second or third round in four of the last six years.

The afternoon’s second-round match sees Ross Smith take on Niels Zonneveld.
