Michael Smith is the man of the moment in Premier League Darts. With three weekly titles in a row, 'Bullyboy' is currently in superb form.
Only Michael van Gerwen previously managed a run of three weekly titles in a row in Premier League Darts. Smith could become the first player to win four in a row.
Should 'Bullyboy' succeed in doing so, he also has a chance of taking first place in the final standings of the league albeit with Price firmly on top.
“I’ve got a chance now in Aberdeen to finish top and go into the Play-Offs full of confidence,” claimed the world number one.
“Gezzy has been the best player [in the Premier League], but I’ve been one of the best for the last three weeks, I’ve picked up 15 points and that’s put me right up there.
“It would be nice to finish top of the table for the prestige. I qualified for the Play-Offs a few weeks ago, but I’ve still got a job to do.
“I’ve still got to put on a show for the fans and I still need to go to The O2 playing well and winning.”

The race for Cazoo Premier League Play-Off qualification will go down to the wire in Aberdeen next week! 💥 Jonny Clayton and Nathan Aspinall will fight it out for a place at The O2, while the race for top spot will also be decided on Night 16! 👀
