The semi finals of the Premier League darts season has arrived and we are looking forward to this epic showdown.

With Michael van Gerwen out of the way the path is wide open for the final four players remaining.

Glen Durrant has been a revelation on his debut season moving through to finals night. He will meet former champion Gary Anderson for a spot in the final.

Glen Durrant Preview – Can Durrant extend his Premier League journey?

Ahead of the new season of the Premier League Darts, debutant Glen Durrant was not one of the front runners.

It has proven to be a difficult format for incoming players to handle at the first attempt.

But Durrant had no such trouble as he posted a W8 D5 L3 record across the course of the season.

He will be lining up as the even money underdog for this semi final match* (odds taken 14:12 GMT on Wednesday, 14th October).

Durrant did fail to win any of his last four fixtures of the regular season, but he was across the line and potentially concentration waned a bit.

During the course of this season, Durrant picked up a 7-4 win and then a draw against Gary Anderson.

So the head to head is actually an event between the two players with one win each and a draw from their three meetings.

Our betting prediction:
Glen Durrant 10-7 Correct Score
7/1

Bet at Ladbrokes

(odds taken 14:12 GMT on Wednesday, 14th October)

 

The last tournament that Durrant played was the World Matchplay when he reached the semi finals, continuing some great form for the season.

There was only one player (Nathan Aspinall) that tallied more 100+ scores throughout the course of the Premier League season than Durrant managed.

We certainly see Duzza bering right there or thereabout and a Durrant +1.5 handicap is at 3/4 odds* (odds taken 14:12 GMT on Wednesday, 14th October).

He is unbeaten in his last two against Anderson and he is well worth a look to come through this match.

 

Gary Anderson Preview – Will Anderson stop Duzza?

Gary Anderson had a problem with consistency over the first half of the Premier League season.

But with the season’s resumption, the Flying Scotsman hit top gear to win four of his last seven games (D1 L2).

That form too did fall away right at the end, Anderson losing his last two matches, going down again Michael van Gerwen and then heavily against Gerwyn Price.

Interestingly of the final four players left standing, Anderson tallied the lowest amount of 100+ scores across the course of the season.

Perhaps significantly taken, he had a 97 three dart average for the season, while Durrant’s was at 98.

That’s small margins that could be very telling at the end of the day.

In the match outright for this darts betting fixture, Anderson is a 4/5 odds-on favourite* (odds taken 14:12 GMT on Wednesday, 14th October).

Anderson is a former Premier League champion, so he does have the experience of handling the pressure of finals night.

Gary Anderson lifted the title for the first time in 2011 when he beat Adrian Lewis.

Then he got his hands on it for the second time against Micahel van Gewren in 2015. So he has been here before and taken the win.

In fact that has been the only occasion that he has reached the final.

Anderson spent the entire second half of the season inside the top four in the league and he is not going to be pushed around lightly.
