The 2022 International Darts Open is set to continue on Saturday evening with the biggest names in darts coming into the foray in Riesa.

While Nico Kurz will aim to delight the home crowd by seeing off Dirk van Duijvenbode who hasn't been in the best form as of late and will aim to take another scalp this evening.

Defending champion, Joe Cullen begins his campaign when he faces Madars Razma who admitted he had other aspects of life on his mind but he will aim to put that to the back of his mind at least momentarily in facing the in-form Rockstar.

Michael van Gerwen will aim to kick off his year title wise this weekend with a young Irishman aiming to claim his scalp when Keane Barry takes to the oche. It will begin a slew of big names with World Number One, Gerwyn Price to face Ritchie Edhouse followed by Jonny Clayton taking on Krzysztof Kciuk.
