The UK Open begins on Friday with the FA Cup of Darts seeing the usual bumper session to kick off as the draw and board allocations for the first three rounds are now set.

On Friday afternoon, first round action on the Main Stage sees Luke Littler, the 16-year-old sensation kick off proceedings against Nick Fullwell. Jelle Klaasen, former World Champion follows on with Josh Rock, Keegan Brown, Adrian Lewis and Simon Whitlock among those in action over the three rounds.

Steve Beaton and Scott Williams are among those in action on Stage Two which is moved this year due to construction work on Red's Bar. But this schedule also holds relevance for all boards.

This is due to the whole tournament being streamed for the first time so every match will be broadcast. ITV4 will hold Main Stage coverage, while Stage Two and matches from Stages Three to Eight will all be on PDCTV.

The fourth round sees the big names come into proceedings with Michael van Gerwen, Peter Wright, Michael Smith, Gary Anderson, Gerwyn Price and Raymond van Barneveld among those to enter in with the open draw meaning some big players could face off as early as Friday evening.
