Well, unless you are Phil Taylor, who triumphed 16 times in his career.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The trophy is now named after the darting legend, a trophy which World No1 Luke Humphries is looking to defend following his maiden success at Winter Gardens last summer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Read on for a full PDC World Matchplay preview from NetBet, complete with some <a href=\"https:\/\/sport.netbet.co.uk\/\">betting<\/a> tips featuring the latest <a href=\"https:\/\/sport.netbet.co.uk\/darts\/\">darts odds<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And if you are new around here, check out our exclusive <a href=\"https:\/\/sport.netbet.co.uk\/promotions\/welcome_offer\/\">Welcome Offer<\/a> before the start of the tournament, with Free Bets and Free Spins up for grabs!<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>PDC World Matchplay Preview<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As per usual, all eyes will be on Humphries and Luke Littler heading into this one, with the pair\u2019s rivalry now the main storyline within the PDC.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Humphries beat Littler in the 2025 Premier League final on May 29, before the duo\u2019s ill-fated World Cup of Darts campaign last month, which saw them eliminated by Germany in their first-ever match together.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So there is perhaps slightly more pressure to perform, particularly for Littler after his First Round exit to Michael van Gerwen at last year\u2019s Matchplay.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But if the 18-year-old is able to deliver in Blackpool, as he has done pretty much everywhere else, he would join the exclusive &#8216;Triple Crown&#8217; club after his previous Premier League and World Championship wins.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Of course, it is not all about Humphries and Littler. Gerwyn Price and Josh Rock look like very strong contenders after top-quality performances in 2025 thus far, while three-time winner Van Gerwen can never be ruled out.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Other former champions in Gary Anderson, Peter Wright, Rob Cross, Nathan Aspinall and James Wade are part of this year\u2019s field too, and experience counts for a heck of a lot on the Blackpool stage!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We cannot wait for the action to get started on Saturday evening, with the tournament concluding on Sunday, July 27.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>PDC World Matchplay First Round Matches<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">James Wade vs Joe Cullen<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Danny Noppert vs Cameron Menzies<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Luke Humphries vs Gian van Veen<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nathan Aspinall vs Wessel Nijman<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Damon Heta vs Andrew Gilding<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rob Cross vs Dirk van Duijvenbode<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Peter Wright vs Jermaine Wattimena<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dave Chisnall vs Mike de Decker<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gary Anderson vs Luke Woodhouse<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jonny Clayton vs Martin Schindler<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Luke Littler vs Ryan Searle<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stephen Bunting vs Ryan Joyce<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Chris Dobey vs Ricardo Pietreczko<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gerwyn Price vs Daryl Gurney<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Michael van Gerwen vs Raymond van Barneveld<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ross Smith vs Chris Rock<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<h2><b>PDC World Matchplay Outright Odds<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><b>*All odds are subject to change<\/b><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Luke Littler &#8211;

Josh Rock @ 7.50<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It finally looks as if Rock is beginning to fulfil his enormous potential. A semi-final appearance at the UK Open was followed by a virtuoso display at the World Cup of Darts, as Northern Ireland won the tournament for the very first time. A 180-hitting machine, this could be the year Rock bridges the gap to Humphries and Littler.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Forecast the finalists &#8211; Luke Humphries vs Josh Rock @ 26.00<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Of course, Rock is on the same side of the draw as Littler, so he will probably have to beat the world champion to reach the final. As we are backing him to do so if the draw pans out that way, this selection looks quite appealing. A Humphries vs Rock final over the best of 35 legs would be some spectacle!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tournament 9 Dart Finish &#8211; Yes @ 1.80<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With so many world-class players on show, a 9 Dart Finish in Blackpool just feels inevitable. In the 2025 edition of the Premier League, five 9 Dart Finishes were hit. And lest we forget, former Matchplay champion Dimitri van den Bergh &#8211; who is unfortunately not part of this year\u2019s tournament &#8211; hit one last year during his First Round match vs Schindler.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>When you choose NetBet Sport, you can enjoy a whole range of top-quality sports and markets.
