Van Gerwen saw off Joe Cullen but was relieved to do so fending off a spirited comeback from 'The Rockstar' who came from 3-1 and 5-2 down to force a decider.
The Bradford ace will likely feeling aggrieved not to move through. This was due to 23 missed darts at doubles from 'Mighty Mike' who moves through 6-5.
This is where Smith will await with 'Bully Boy' joining Gary Anderson in the spoiler role in Glasgow denting the play-off chances of Gerwyn Price in this instance.
He produced a 6-3 win over 'The Iceman' who will seemingly head to Leverkusen this weekend after having a week off and not playing Graz.
But this time away didn't seem to provide an immediate boost as Smith averaged 99.2 in seeing him off in Glasgow.
