Schedule and preview Sunday afternoon session 2022 Austrian Darts Open including Van Gerwen-Wade and Noppert-Clayton

The Austrian Darts Open is set to conclude on Sunday with the afternoon session to set it all up with a potentially wide open field remaining in Graz.

It all begins with Premier League leader and multiple major champion, Jonny Clayton facing the current UK Open champion, Danny Noppert in what could be a quality affair.

Following that, it is another Premier League star with Joe Cullen taking on Krzysztof Ratajski who looked impressive in his opening averaging over a ton and could pose 'The Rockstar' some problems.

As could Danny Jansen in the context of the whole tournament with the Mullet on a Mission in Austria.

After winning his maiden ProTour, the Dutch prospect has brought his game onto the stage and with Ricky Evans next up, it is sure to be a quick and entertaining clash.

Before Madars Razma dukes it out with Nathan Aspinall with the Latvian likely hoping to reproduce the heroics of the 108 average in his opener or in the case of defeating Jose de Sousa catch Aspinall in an out of sorts display.

Despite injury, Aspinall has firmly proved he can still produce with the elite players in the game and will hope to add a European Tour title come Sunday evening and it will continue with Razma.

Before it is the turn of the final home hope. Zoran Lerchbacher has been firmly the favourite of the Graz crowd and 'The Hypercane' will get his chance to book his spot in the final session.

But in doing so, he faces Dirk van Duijvenbode who delivered on his fired up walk-on as he dumped out Rowby-John Rodriguez. Another Austrian will be in his sights and the Aubergenius will have no qualms about bringing home the win.

Same can be said for his compatriot, Michael van Gerwen who will be the favourite to seal yet another European Tour title. But in his way is a familiar foe this week even as he faces James Wade in what feels to many the 100th time this season.

Both have battled in the Premier League with Wade coming out on top in their last meeting and that usually puts the fire in the belly of the Green Machine. Can he topple a real in-form Machine or will Wade hold the answers?

Rob Cross certainly held the answers when it came to the Northern Irish prodigy, Josh Rock who has developed into a real talent but came unstuck against Voltage.

Next up will be Gabriel Clemens who for once does not have the German crowd behind him and so far has performed well but can he put the power out on Cross' charge.

Before Peter Wright's vanquisher, Callan Rydz takes to the oche with a big opportunity to get into the final session. Another former World Champion awaits in Stephen Bunting who himself was impressive in seeing off Ross Smith.
