UK Open 2019 Schedule & Board Allocations: Saturday evening session

The action at the UK Open will kick off with James Wade who has to be one of the favourites for the title given his current form and his previous title wins taking on Ross Smith, a player who has gone under the radar for the majority of the tournament. Then it'll be Krzysztof Ratajski taking on Gerwyn Price in a match between two of the most in-form players currently in darts. Michael Smith will face Jermaine Wattimena in what is bound to be a quick fire clash and then finally like alluded to Cross will face Reyes. Cross lost to the Spaniard early on at the Players Championship series; but with his constant improvement again, he will look to move through with ease as the tournament favourite. On stage two, it will begin with a battle of two Premier League contenders this year in Nathan Aspinall and Steve Lennon. Both have played brilliantly this tournament but one player has to head home. Dave Chisnall is also in form and will see this weekend as the perfect opportunity to finally win a major title but standing in his way is Simon Stevenson. Stevenson won't be an easy opponent and has shown so far he has the game to trouble the best players but can 'The Mirror Man' continue his landmark run. Steve Beaton and Dimitri van den Bergh and Simon Whitlock vs Josh Payne will end off the session in two hotly anticipated games. for more information about the UK Open including the schedule, prize fund breakdown, TV coverage and format.
