Gerwyn Price vs Michael van Gerwen – Match Predictions
Contents
Gerwyn Price holds a four-point lead at the top of the Premier League standings from Van Gerwen after some sparkling form. Here are our darts predictions from the Night 14 clash in Manchester.
Prediction 1: Gerwyn Price To Win @ 4/5 (1.8)
There is really no comparison between the current league form of Price and Van Gerwen. Price overhauled a huge points deficit to take over from the Dutchman at the summit. Granted some of that was down to some brilliant form, the rest down to a bit of a slump that MVG has been having.
Prediction 2: Price -1.5 Handicap @ 13/10 (2.3)
After looking at the current form of the two players ahead of this one, Price does look as if he can pull out a relatively comfortable win. It’s important to understand that there is really nothing at stake here as both are going to Finals night and more likely than not, as the top two players.
Gerwyn Price and Michael van Gerwen Latest Form and Performances
With a look ahead to Thursday’s night’s big clash in the quarter-finals we dive into the current form of the two players. The winner will face either Michael Smith or Nathan Aspinall in the semis.
Price Looking Unstoppable
For the third round running, Gerwyn Price landed in the showcase match last week. While he couldn’t get the better of Michael Smith in the Night 13 final, Price remains in hot form. The Iceman has made the final in five of the last seven rounds of PL action and hasn’t failed to get past the quarter-finals since Night 6.
Michael van Gerwen Performances (Heading Title Should Be Enticing)
Back-to-back quarter-final defeats are something almost unheard of for Michael van Gerwen. But that’s where he is at right now after a loss last week against Peter Wright. It’s hardly panic station, but he will want to start rediscovering form over the last three rounds of action in the regular season before Finals Night.
Gerwyn Price vs Michael van Gerwen Head to Head
Gerwyn Price has won the last five meetings with Michael van Gerwen, which is a pretty stunning head-to-head record. The Welshman is 3-1 from the four clashes that they have had in this season’s Premier League.
