Dirk van Duijvenbode takes on Callan Rydz, while Joe Cullen will aim to tussle with the Dutch crowd as he faces Jermaine Wattimena. Dimitri van den Bergh will also renew his rivalry with Gabriel Clemens. Other top names include Damon Heta who will open his account against Ritchie Edhouse or Jiri Brejcha. While
Gerwyn Price faces William O'Connor or Mickey Mansell.
Peter Wright will also face the victor of that tie between Van Barneveld or Menzies.
