THE PREDICTION
Ross Smith was put through his paces in the first round by David Evans and although the final result was 3-0 in his favour, each of the three sets were competitive and that will serve him well heading into this second-round encounter. However, he runs into one of the dark horses for the entire tournament with recent Grand Slam of Darts champion Jose de Sousa playing some exception darts right now. ‘The Special One’ is in the form of his life and his statistics over the course of 2020 are up there with the very best. He may be feeling some added pressure given that there there is plenty of expectation on him to have a deep run at Ally Pally but if he can overcome some early nerves then he is likely to outclass Smith here with a 3-1 scoreline the prediction.
