Schedule and preview Saturday evening session 2022 European Darts Grand Prix including Van Gerwen, Wright and Clayton-Lewis

The darting action continues on Saturday evening at the European Darts Grand Prix with Michael van Gerwen, Peter Wright, Jonny Clayton and Joe Cullen among those in action.

It is Cullen who starts off proceedings in facing Rowby-John Rodriguez who could represent a tricky task given his good form as of late.

'The Rockstar' is coming off his latest Premier League win in London and heading into an important final week which could see him qualify for the play-offs. Can he start as he means to go on in Stuttgart?

Someone who has been doing just that on the European Tour this season is Luke Humphries sealing two titles so far including becoming only the third player to hold multiple wins over Michael van Gerwen in one year on the European Tour.

He begins his quest for a hat-trick against Ryan Meikle. While the game that will likely get all the attention follows as Jonny Clayton and Adrian Lewis face off.

Lewis faced Clayton's World Cup of Darts teammate Gerwyn Price in a feisty tie last week and while it is less likely to be similar in nature, it could be a must watch if both are on their top scoring game.

As will be Van Gerwen facing Martin Lukeman. 'Smash' will look to topple MVG and claim another big scalp as his brilliant year continues, while for Van Gerwen usually he bounces back well after losing in the Premier League early, so can he do that again?

Home hero Martin Schindler follows against Madars Razma, before 'The Sweet Ferret' Johan Engstrom looks to take advantage of Peter Wright's poor form as of late and dump out the World Number One after seeing off Gabriel Clemens last night.

Before Michael Smith and Danny Noppert face off in a repeat of their UK Open final won by the Dutchman. It is another Dutchman who ends the evening as Dirk van Duijvenbode faces Nathan Rafferty.
