Premier League Darts 2019 VIP Prediction Competition – Round 1 predictions from our experts

Dartsnews' Premier League Darts VIP Prediction Competition returned this season, after the inaugural edition being held last year. Sky Sports presenter Laure James managed to win the league after sixteen exciting weeks. All entrants have submitted their predictions for the first round in the new season.

Several darts experts will meet in our VIP Prediction Competition during the Premier League Darts 2019. A league of twelve, comprising of players, analysts and journalists will take part. Jeffrey de Zwaan, Vincent van der Voort, Luke Humphries, Stephen Bunting, Jyhan Artut, Jamie Lewis, Kim Huybrechts, Ricky Evans and Steve Beaton are the other participants. The rules are very simple. Every Premier League Darts week, they will predict the results of that week's play. Choosing the right winner will yield one point, while predicting a correct scoreline earns them two. There is no Judgement Night for our twelve predictors. However, they will all play along until the play-offs at the O2 Arena in London on Thursday 23 May. Whoever has collected the most points after play concludes will be the first VIP prediction competition champion.
