Premier League Darts LIVE: Scores and results as Luke Littler faces Stephen Bunting in huge top vs bottom clash – latest

Dart on the Tyne

Welcome to SunSport’s coverage of Premier League Darts night eight in Newcastle.

The Toon welcome some of the biggest icons in darts, with Luke Littler, Humphries and Michael van Gerwen stepping to the oche in the north of England.

Chris Dobey will be the fan favourite tonight, as the Newcastle native prepares for his big homecoming, a week after Gerwyn Price lost in the first round on his homecoming.

This week sees clashes drawn based off the Premier League Darts table, so Luke Littler will take on bottom-of-the-table Stephen Bunting to kick-off the action.

Home hero Dobey has a tall order taking on Luke Humphries, but the world No 1 seems out of form as of late, and so Dobey could take advantage with the crowd behind him.

Michael van Gerwen takes on Nathan Aspinall and Gerwyn Price takes on Rob Cross elsewhere.
