Michael van Gerwen will face Chris Dobey in the final of Night One of Premier League Darts action in Belfast as the reigning champion takes on the only debutant in this years' field.
Like his win over Dimitri van den Bergh, it will be a repeat of the World Championship and another player that MVG eased past at the Alexandra Palace but will he do the same tonight.
He saw off Van den Bergh in a 6-4 win for 'The Green Machine' in his semi-final game averaging 106 in the process.

Taking out 81 to go 3-1 up, he was only one up as Van den Bergh hit a 127 and game to go 3-2 down but Van Gerwen soon extended his lead hitting an 87 and 60 checkout to go one leg away at 5-3.
Van den Bergh hit double 16 for a 12-darter to go one down at 5-4 but MVG sealed the deal on double 10.
While for Dobey, it is a dream debut that continues to get better. Playing in his first full Premier League night, he took out Peter Wright and has now seen off Nathan Aspinall to reach the final.
He produced six 180's en route to six 180's to silence any doubters that he didn't deserve his spot after winning the Masters this past weekend.

- There are 30 Players Championship rounds to play first throughout the year and you have to be in the top 64 to get to the finals. This is probably the hardest Major to win as its the top 128 players at each event or the top ranked Challenge Tour players if any tour card holders drop out.Mysstree20-11-2024
