Premier League darts returns tonight as Luke Litter takes on the league leader Luke Humphries.
Things haven't gone quite as planned for the teenager in the 2024 Darts Premier League, as he currently sits outside of the Play-Off qualification spots in 5th place.
A defeat against Michael Smith in the Night Eight quarter-final in Dublin last week saw the Bully Boy leapfrog Luke the Nuke.
The 17-year-old sensation will be looking to recover as he faces an opening match against the man who beat him in the PDC World Championship Final in January, Luke Humphries.
Since their showdown at Alexandra Palace, Littler has come out on top in their last three matchups.
Humphries has been unstoppable of late, winning the last three nights, earning 15 points and solidifying his position at the top of the standings, seven points ahead of second-placed Michael van Gerwen.
They take to the stage in the first of the four quarter finals tonight. Click here for Grant Heaney's Night 9 Premier League Darts predictions and betting tips.
