Premier League Night 15 preview

Josh Rock vs Gian van Veen

2026 H2H: Van Veen leads 2-0

First up in Birmingham are debutants Josh Rock and Gian van Veen, two players who have had very different competitions.

Rock is bottom and cannot make the playoffs while Van Veen is sixth and very much can.

Neither has played that well over recent Thursdays although Rock put in a fine performance in Graz at the weekend when he won the Austrian Open.

With the pressure off, take the World Cup winner to land the odds.

Gerwyn Price vs Michael van Gerwen

2026 H2H: Price leads 3-1

Third plays fifth in game two, a humdinger between two players who won't give an inch to their opponent.

Expect roars and snarls as the testosterone flows and also assume it is going to be a good game.

Price has won only one match in the last five weeks so looks an iffy favourite despite beating Van Gerwen twice this season.

The Green Machine won a Players Championship heat on Tuesday - a rare tournament win these days - and looked like a man who should have no problem soaring past an average of 96.5.

Luke Humphries vs Stephen Bunting

2026 H2H: Humphries leads 3-1

Cool Hand Luke was a clear second-favourite going into the Premier League but has made devilishly hard work of simply getting into the top four.

Stephen Bunting has spent all bar two weeks in either seventh or eighth place and has made even harder work of reaching the playoffs.

Inconsistency is the buzz word in this match. Humphries is too short and just like last week's meeting between the two which went the distance - Humphries won it 6-5 - expect another relative marathon.

Jonny Clayton vs Luke Littler

2026 H2H: 3-3

The final quarter-final is between the two qualifiers to date, two men with eyes on top spot.

The more relaxed Jonny Clayton probably isn't too bothered whether he finishes first or second, whereas Luke Littler has made no secret of his wish to set yet more records.

This will be their seventh meeting in this season's Premier League and they have shared the spoils over the first six.

That suggests there's less between them than the odds imply and maybe the Welshman is worth chucking a dart at. Figuratively, of course.
