Premier League Darts Night 12 tips

• Michael van Gerwen to beat Luke Humphries – 11/8 at BetVictor
• Luke Littler Most 180s vs Michael Smith – Evs at BoyleSports
• Nathan Aspinall -1.5 Handicap vs Peter Wright – 10/11 with BetGoodwin

The 2024 Premier League Darts roadshow is going international for Night 12 of this year’s competition, heading to Rotterdam for what is always one of the highlights of the season.

Last week in Birmingham, Michael van Gerwen got back to winning ways, downing Luke Littler in the final. It was Might Mike's fourth final win of the competition, and he's up to third place in the standings.

In what should be a fascinating clash on Night 12, home hero MVP takes on the world champion Luke Humphries in the opening round at the Rotterdam Ahoy. That's the last match on of an excellent quarter-finals card with Littler taking on Michael Smith in an all-English clash, Rob Cross facing Gerwyn Price, while Peter Wright plays Nathan Aspinall.

There's no shortage of markets on darts betting sites for Night 12 and here's what we've picked out for the quarter-final matches in Rotterdam.

Michael Smith vs Luke Littler predictions

(7.15pm, Sky Sports Main Event)

After hitting the most 180s in Birmingham last week, Littler now tops the standings for 180s in this year’s Premier League. The Bahrain Masters champion has hit 74 maximums so far, and he can extend that number in Rotterdam as he bids to defend his position as the league leader.

‘Nuke’ is coming up against a player who has been renowned for filling the Treble 20 bed throughout his career. When Smith won his world title at the Alexandra Palace, he was prolific with 180s. 

If these two players get going early, they could push each other to some heavy scoring.

Littler is a warm favourite across betting apps for this contest, but the best way to play this match may be to take the evens with BoyleSports on the teenager from Warrington hitting the most 180s. He will enjoy the pace of this match and he will also bounce off the electric crowd in Rotterdam.

Peter Wright vs Nathan Aspinall predictions

(8.15pm, Sky Sports Main Event)

Nathan Aspinall has a great opportunity to strengthen his position inside the top four of the Premier League standings when he takes on Peter Wright in the quarter finals in Rotterdam. Snakebite’s struggles continue, as he has just four points to his name in this year’s competition.

Asp blew Wright away 6-2 in Birmingham on Night 9. He also had a 6-4 success against the Scotsman on Night 5 in Exeter. The man from Stockport has been one of the most consistent players in the league over the last few weeks. Unfortunately for the former World Matchplay and UK Open winner, he bumped into MVG in the opening round in Belfast, so his evening did not last very long.

Wright has not advanced past his opening match in three of the last four weeks. His only quarter-final victory in that period came against Rob Cross.

Aspinall is looking good for a place at the O2 Arena in May and with a good night here, he can take a big step towards booking his spot in the play-offs. 

The Asp should be capable of covering the -1.5 handicap on betting sites against Wright. For this bet to win, Aspinall must win the match by two legs or more. Any other result and the bet loses.

Michael van Gerwen vs Luke Humphries predictions

(8.45pm, Sky Sports Main Event)

As the greatest Dutch player in history, Van Gerwen always gets a tremendous reception when he plays in the Netherlands. The crowd will be right behind him when he takes on Humphries in the quarter finals on Night 12 of the Premier League.

MVP recorded victories over Aspinall, Smith and Littler in Birmingham. The standard was not the best on Night 11, but Mighty Mike did not mind, as it was an important triumph for him. It will give the Dutchman a lot of confidence ahead of his homecoming in Rotterdam.

Humphries has had an incredible year so far, but there have just been a few signs over the last few weeks that his form has dipped. He has failed to get beyond the opening round in two of the last three weeks.

The world champion is the favourite across gambling sites for this contest, but based on the form of the two players, van Gerwen is the more attractive selection here. 

It's not often you can get 11/8 on MVG, who is worth considering to carry forward his momentum from Birmingham.
