The first phase of this year's Premier League Darts will conclude later this evening with Judgement Night and as a result, there has been a schedule change.

Gerwyn Price, Rob Cross and Daryl Gurney will battle it out for their survival tonight and they will now play in the last three games of the night.

Gurney's resurgence has meant that the race has gone to the wire with back-to-back wins putting him above Rob Cross.

Price's route through is almost secure with him needing a solitary leg from his tie with Jermaine Wattimena to ensure his place in the second phase. Even a 7-0 defeat leaves Cross needing to win by the same margin against league leader Glen Durrant.

He needs at least a draw to put the pressure on Gurney as the Northern Irishman is a point ahead but of course any sort of defeat for Cross would put him out of the running.

Price will begin the last three games against Wattimena, Gurney will follow against Wright and finally Durrant will play Cross. This comes after Nathan Aspinall vs Michael Smith and Michael van Gerwen vs Gary Anderson in a bumper Judgement Night.
