    Rock 1-2 Littler

    It gets a littler tighter than Luke Littler might have liked after storming into a big lead in the leg but he gets it done in the end.

    Another double 10 hit to keep this one on throw.

    Rock 1-1 Littler

    The trebles have evaded Josh Rock early in both legs so far. There are no such troubles for Luke Littler.

    But Rock manages to claw his way back and secure the hold with a double-double finish. Double 17 followed by double top to take out 86.

    That's a confidence booster for the Northern Irishman.

    Josh Rock v Luke Littler

    Walk-ons done, the crowd in Aberdeen seems a lively one - I don't think that was ever in doubt - and we're ready to go with the first quarter-final of the evening...

    Josh Rock v Luke Littler

    Luke Littler talking to Sky Sports: "I've had a very good weekend at the exhibitions and a good bit of practice. I've been using the newer darts too and i don't know what to use so I'll have a practise with both and see what I'm feeling.

    "I'm going to be chasing Jonny [Clayton] - I want the top of the table and nothing else. We'll see how tonight goes and hopefully I'll get a few more points on the board tonight."

    Luke Littler hasn't been at his consistent best but at times he has been at his brilliant best.

    With four weeks to go, I expect he might find a way to top the table.

    We know that Jonny Clayton probably isn't that bothered about finishing top, but Luke Littler will be. He knows he is the best player in the world so he'll want to top the table.

    I wouldn't be surprised if Luke Littler goes back-to-back tonight.

    Time for the first game of the night and another chance for Luke Littler to try and reclaim top spot.

    The world champion claimed his fourth nightly win of the campaign in Liverpool last week but remains three points behind leader Jonny Clayton.

    Tonight in Aberdeen, Littler takes on Josh Rock.

    The Northern Irishman is propping up the table with just eight points but his form has picked up a littler in recent weeks.

    A strong finish almost certainly won't be enough to reach the play-offs but would show he is worthy of another go next year.

  11. 'Do or die for Humphries'published at 19:10 BST 30 April

    I think it is do or die for Luke Humphries. This week feels really meaningful.

    Points are everything now. Forget about performances.

    It was his doubles, but his scoring has gone missing now. Despite all that I've predicted him to win the night because I do think that is what champions do.

    If can win tonight, then oh my goodness, anything can happen.

  12. How things standpublished at 19:08 BST 30 April

    Here's where we're up to with four weeks left of the league phase.

    The top two will already be planning for finals night at the O2 Arena on 28 May but as many as five players will still be holding out hope of claiming one of the other two...

  15. Premier League Darts format and points systempublished at 19:03 BST 30 April

    Premier League Darts is played across 16 initial weeks in the league stage with quarter-finals, semi-finals and a final each night.

    Each of the eight players is guaranteed to face the other seven in the quarter-finals in weeks one to seven and 9-15, with week eight and week 16 fixtures done off the table. It means we will get fourth v fifth in Sheffield on the final league-stage night, with the play-off spots potentially on the line.

    Players earn two points per quarter-final win, an additional point if they win their semi-final and five for winning the night.

    The top four players after the group stage progress to the play-off night at London's O2 Arena on 28 May, with first facing fourth and second against third in a best-of-19-leg match. The final, which is the best of 21 legs, follows.

    If players are level on points after the 16 weeks then places are decided by nights won and then matches won.

  16. Good evening!published at 19:00 BST 30 April
