Jonny Clayton vs Gerwyn Price Prediction and Odds – Premier League Darts, Night 7

Last week in Liverpool, Gerwyn Price became the first player to be beaten by Peter Wright in this season’s Premier League Darts. Will the Iceman bounce back from that on Night 7 in Nottingham this week, where he is the odds-on favourite to beat Johnny Clayton?


These odds from Ladbrokes were correct at the time of writing.

Jonny Clayton vs Gerwyn Price – Match Predictions

It’s an all-Welsh battle in the Quarter Finals of Night 7 in the top half of the draw. It’s Price who the bookmakers have pegged as the favourite to come through the match against his compatriot. The tension could be high in this one, with a nice little rivalry going, so read on for the best of our darts predictions.

Prediction 1: Price 6-5 Correct Score

Gerwyn Price does look the more likely to have an edge in this contest, but it is really hard to see any kind of wide gap between the two players. The two have met this year already in a couple of tight encounters. So with that in mind we are heading straight into the correct score market for the first of the night’s darts predictions.

Prediction 2: Clayton +0.5 Handicap

This is a very interesting match with that bit of added spice of being an all-Welsh encounter. Consistency hasn’t been on the radar much for either of these this season. But we think that this will further push this match towards being a tight encounter. To get as close as possible, A Clayton +0.5 handicap may be worth a look as an option.

Jonny Clayton and Gerwyn Price Latest Form and Performances

The winner of the clash will move forward to face either Dimitri van Den Bergh or Nathan Aspinall in the Semi-Finals. The top half of the night’s draw is wide open, who will take their chance in this one? Next, we push on with the current respective form of the two players.

Jonny Clayton Seeks Consistency

Last week in Liverpool, Jonny Clayton didn’t get much of a look-in. He crashed in the Quarter Finals against eventual Night 6 winner Michael van Gerwen. That was after losing the Night 5 Final against the same player. In his last five televised matches he has posted a mixed bag of W2 L3 match results, so has become hard to read.

The Iceman Needs A Cool Head in Nottingham

Gerwyn Price lost 6-5 against Peter Wright in last week’s Quarter Finals, who had been winless in the season up until that point. It’s been three losses for Price in his last five televised matches now and the Iceman just hasn’t been at his accurate heavy-scoring best for a while. But what will give him a lift is that he’s beaten Clayton twice this year.

Jonny Clayton vs Gerwyn Price Head to Head

Price and Clayton met at the Bahrain Darts Masters and the Nordic Darts Masters in 2023. Price came out on top of them, but neither victory was taken by more than a 2-leg margin. It’s a four-match winning streak that the Iceman is on against Clayton right now.
