After the ProTour has taken centre stage in recent weeks, the European Tour will return on Friday with the European Darts Open from Leverkusen which features Jose de Sousa, Brendan Dolan and Krzysztof Ratajski in action in the afternoon.
De Sousa is a late replacement for Joe Murnan with the new reserve list in operation earlier than expected. The winner of that tie against Ted Evetts faces Dirk van Duijvenbode.
For Dolan in facing Steve Lennon, Luke Humphries awaits the victor who is top seed in Leverkusen. While the opponents of Gerwyn Price in Ratajski or Bradley Brooks and Michael Smith who will face either Rene Eidams or Jurjen van der Velde will also be set.
William O'Connor, Ryan Joyce, Ricardo Pietreczko and Luke Woodhouse are all also in action with the latter facing the Challenge Tour standout, Andy Boulton. Play begins at 12pm GMT.
