The 2021 Premier League Darts will begin on Monday April 5 with a repeat of last year's final between Glen Durrant and Nathan Aspinall on the agenda.
This will also set to feature a rematch of the World Championship final between Gerwyn Price and Gary Anderson but a positive Covid-19 test for 'The Iceman' on the morning of the tournament means James Wade is set to replace him.
The opening nine nights of the 2021 Premier League will be held behind closed doors in Milton Keynes from April 5-9 and April 19-22, with ten players facing each other once in the first half of the season.
The bottom two players will be eliminated following Judgement Night on April 22, with details of the second half of the season including the play-offs to follow in due course.
Also on the first night, Michael van Gerwen opens up against World Matchplay champion, Dimitri van den Bergh, while Peter Wright and Rob Cross will face Jonny Clayton and Jose de Sousa.
Night Two sees Van Gerwen and Wright face off in the headline tie, with Wright and Anderson meeting on Night Three.
Night Four sees the familiar adversaries in Van Gerwen and Wade face off who have had their fair share of Premier League dust-ups in the past. Night Five ends the first half with Anderson facing Clayton and Wade taking on reigning champion Durrant.
Action will resume on Monday April 19 from there which features Durrant taking on Van Gerwen in a meeting of the only two players to have topped the table in the line-up.
Night Seven sees Van Gerwen lock horns once more with Anderson. While Night Eight includes a repeat of the 2020 World Matchplay final between Van den Bergh and Anderson.
Judgement Night follows with the bottom two being eliminated with Wade against Van den Bergh, Aspinall playing Anderson, De Sousa facing Wright, Durrant taking on Cross and Clayton facing Van Gerwen.
