After back to back wins, Glen Durrant has really taken a big grip of the top spot in the Premier League.
He is now unbeaten in five matches in the competition and will look to extend that when he meets Gerwyn Price on Friday.
But the Welshman has just started to get some momentum of his own going having won back to back matches.

Glen Durrant Preview – Durrant rolling on
The season of the Premier League Darts returned with Glen Durrant playing out a draw in a big clash against Peter Wright.
The following night Durrant then found himself up against reigning Premier League champion Michale van Gerwen.
Once again, Duzza had the edge over the Dutchman, posting a 7-3 win over Mighty Mike.
Last night Durrant faced Rob Cross and did the business again, taking a 7-4 win.
In each of his last three nights, he has now produced a 3-dart average of over 100.
So now he is rolling and he moves on to a W6 D2 L1 record for the campaign.
That’s not too shabby at all for a player in his debut season of the tricky competition.
But he was handling the weekly format before and now the matches are running on consecutive nights, he’s stepped things up further.
Durrant is unbeaten in five Premier League games now, winning four of those.
Earlier this season when he met Gerwyn Price, Durrant collected a 7-3 win over the Welshman.
Gerwyn Price Preview – Can Price stop Durrant in his tracks?
It hasn’t been a great campaign from Gerwyn Price who won only one of his first seven matches.
But in the last two nights, he has bounced back with wins over Gary Anderson and Michael van Gerwen.
So that’s a big step forward in form from him, can he make it three in a row to haul himself further into the picture for a top-four finish?
This will be the 11th meeting between these two players, all since November 2018.
From those previous duels is it Price who leads with a W6 L4 record.
But Price has lost two of the last three against Durrant, including this season’s Premier League fixture as mentioned.

Gerwyn Price has produced a 3-dart average of 97 so far in this season’s Premier League.
That is up against the 99.6 average that has been produced by Durrant.
While Durrant has fewer 180’s no player has scored more 100+ tallies or more 140+ tallies. So that’s what Price is up against.
Price is now W3 D3 L3 this season in the Premier League, but after a really below-par campaign, he looks to be in the zone at the moment.
So much so that the bookmakers are giving him favouritism at 5/4 and this should be a cracker of a match* (odds taken 02:06 GMT Friday 28th August).
