The draw has been confirmed ahead of the 2024 European Darts Grand Prix which will take place in Sindelfingen, a European Tour staple between April 19-21. A tournament which will see £175,000 on offer, it sees Rob Cross as defedning champion.
This weekend's action will see Cross compete alongside World Number One Luke Humphries, Michael van Gerwen and the returning Luke Littler. He plays for the first time since winning his maiden European Tour last month.
Martin Schindler won last time out on the European Tour and will open up against Gian van Veen. Host Nation Qualifier Arno Merk will face off against Littler for a spot in Round Two with Humphries v Littler again being a potential. Peter Wright will face Mickey Mansell also on the Friday.
Gerwyn Price on the Saturday could face Gilding or Dolan, Van Gerwen could take on Joe Cullen as well as Gary Anderson potentially facing Niels Zonneveld or Christian Perez. There is also the home hope clash of Ricardo Pietreczko against either Clemens or Eidams.
