Gerwyn Price and Jonny Clayton are both hoping to secure their second nightly victories as Premier League Darts rolls into Cardiff for Night 5.
The Welshmen could meet in the final, vying for the support of a Cardiff crowd.
Littler and Humphries Aim to Turn the Tide
Luke Littler and Luke Humphries are searching for their first nightly win, after what could be described as sluggish starts to their Premier League Darts campaigns.
Humphries has won just two matches in the 2026 season. Littler’s only victory came against Humphries on Night 2 in Antwerp.
The world’s two best players are sitting second- and third-bottom in the table on four points. Two of Littler’s points were awarded after Michael van Gerwen withdrew from their Night 3 clash in Glasgow due to illness.
Webster Dismisses Talk of a Littler Blip
Speaking on the Love the Darts podcast, Mark Webster dismissed any suggestion that Littler was experiencing a blip, insisting that both he and Humphries were simply being punished by opponents taking their chances.
“Littler sets such high standards that we expect him to win and perform week in, week out,” Webster said.
“I wouldn’t even call this a blip. He’s just started a bit slow, and players have taken their chances. How many times have we seen him trail four or five legs down but still manage to turn it around?
“Players have just been getting over the line at the minute, but that will change. There will be nightly wins, and I have zero doubt that, come the play-offs, both the Lukes will be there.
“I don’t think they have massively underperformed. I just think players have taken their opportunities. I always say that to beat the two Lukes, when they’re having an off spell, you’ve got to make hay – and players have been doing that.
“The Lukes won’t be panicking. There’s so much time left. They’re capable players who can win one week and then keep winning week after week.
“But it does make the table look a little bit refreshing, because we’re so used to talking about the two Lukes being first and second, and now they’ve got a bit of battling to do.”
