"Only Luke Littler and Michael van Gerwen can test me" - Luke Humphries brimming with confidence as he looks for record breaking 4th successive Premier League night win

Luke Humphries goes in search of a fourth consecutive weekly Premier League Darts title tonight in Belfast. 'Cool Hand Luke' will take on Luke Littler in the quarter-finals.

Humphries, however, had a difficult start to the year, a hangover perhaps from winning his world totle, which even earned him some criticism from certain fans on social media. "You need to stop listening to people’s opinions because it will drive you insane. You’ll never please everybody," Humphries explains to Phil Lanning. "I’m really enjoying myself. The start of the season I felt a little bit worn out. It felt really tough for me. Now I’m enjoying the game and that’s when I’m at my best."

For Humphries, this is only the first full year he has been allowed to compete in Premier League Darts. “I feel like I belong here. The last three weeks have been fantastic, my standard has been really high. I’m not unbeatable but I feel like I’m at the stage where it takes a big performance to beat me."

"Next week I want to create a record and win four on the trot," continued the 29-year-old Englishman. “A lot of people think I’ve got one foot in the semis. But I don’t think that. I have to keep working hard."

Humphries is therefore brimming with self-confidence. “I’m not arrogant at all. But I feel if I play my A game I feel like there’s only a couple of people who can test me. Luke Littler and Michael van Gerwen, they are the two that can push me. Their A level can probably beat me.”
