Turner excited for Van Gerwen-Price showdown at Premier League Darts: "It's got box office written all over it"

Michael van Gerwen and Gerwyn Price will be the headline act on Thursday night at the Premier League Darts in Nottingham.

Price despite not being 100% will attempt to dethrone Mighty Mike who has been dominant in recent weeks returning to old form and for Sky Sports pundit, Laura Turner, it is a tie she is excited for.

"It's got box office written all over it, hasn't it?" Turner said to Sky Sports. "It will be interesting to see how it goes.

"Michael has picked up his form and he's now more consistent throughout a tournament, which is something he lacked over the last 18 months or so where he can put in that massive performance but not follow it up.

"Back in Exeter I think he dropped just three legs on his way to victory. The other thing is that Michael is hungry, isn't he? Although, you can't say whether Gerwyn will be hungry either.

"It will be his first time back in Premier League action since losing that No 1 spot. I wouldn't want to call it to be honest.

"They're both going to want to win that match for sure."
