Verdict: 6-4 Chris Dobey (11/10) v Peter Wright (8/11) They are third favourites at 3/1 with Ladbrokes behind MVG v Smith (6/4) and Dobey v Wright (11/4) but given their respective 180 per leg ratios of 0.33 and 0.31, they can definitely go close. If we have a hard-fought battle with at least 10 legs, then this is a contender for most 180s in the quarter-finals. But this short format can always make a mockery of stats form, especially when a player of Aspinall's battling qualities is on the oche.

Two of those were actually high 80s and he still managed to win one of those - a semi-final against Aspinall a fortnight ago.īy contrast, Aspinall has surprisingly exceeded 100 in just two of his last 20 matches in all competition and dipped into the 80s on four occasions. The pair have met four times in the Premier League this season with two wins apiece and a legs aggregate score of 20-18 in Price's favour so we should expect another close affair despite the gulf in average stats.ĭespite suffering a 6-2 defeat to MVG in last week's quarter-finals, the Iceman now produced 21 ton+ averages in his last 25 matches in all competitions and he's only dropped below 100 three times in his last 16 matches. With just two nights of the regular season remaining, Gerwyn Price knows that he is guaranteed to top the table if he wins the night and Michael van Gerwen fails to reach the final, while Nathan Aspinall is even more desperate for points in the race for the play-offs.Ī runners-up finish in Sheffield would also be enough for Price if MVG loses his quarter-final and Michael Smith doesn't win the night but to stand a chance of getting that far he will need to be up for another battle with the Asp. Gerwyn Price (2/5) v Nathan Aspinall (7/4) Format: Quarter-Finals, best of 11 legs.
