German Darts Grand Prix. Sunday night the final eight duels from the second round will be played.
The evening session opens with a tie between former world champion Michael Smith and Cameron Menzies. In the second match of the evening session, Danny Noppert will take on Gian van Veen. For Noppert, it will be his first match at this tournament, while Van Veen won against Raymond van Barneveld in the first round.

Peter Wright in arguably the tie of the round before reigning world champion
Luke Humphries will battle Luke Woodhouse, while Damon Heta faces Martin Schindler and Damon Heta vs Martin Schindler.
