THE PREDICTION

Gary Anderson has shown excellent fighting qualities this week as, despite not being at his fluent best, he took the win over Rob Cross on Monday and held Michael van Gerwen to a draw last night. He will need every ounce of that grit to hold off Dimitri Van den Bergh though, who impressively tops the Premier League table heading into Night 8. This is actually the pair's first meeting since Van den Bergh won their World Matchplay final last year, so the Belgian will have fond memories of facing the Flying Scotsman. Statistically, the table-topper should be winning this given that he has a superior tournament average and checkout percentage but Anderson will not budge easily so a draw is not out of the question. Alternatively, consider backing Over 7.5 180s as these are two of the most prolific maximum hitters in the tournament.
