Like all European Tours, the schedule for the Friday is full of the qualifiers with the seeds coming in on the Saturday with the likes of Michael van Gerwen, Rob Cross etc. all battling it out for £25,000 and the European Darts Open trophy.
On the Friday in action in the afternoon session include debuts in the Euro Tour for Cameron Menzies who faces off against Mark Wilson with the winner of that one facing Michael van Gerwen in Round 2.
Jan Dekker who has been in some great form recently but has gone under the radar will play Tytus Kanik who is making his debut after coming through the Eastern European qualifier: but he is also a tour card holder.
Also there is a debut for Jamie Hughes, the former BDO player will take on Max Hopp in what could be the match of the session between the pair.
Finally there is a debut for Luke Humphries, the Development Tour winner will play Darren Johnson in what could also be a cracking encounter.
