Here we go then, the semi-finals are getting started with a repeat of the world final a couple of years ago.

Luke Littler got out of jail a bit against Luke Humphries, but Michael van Gerwen didn't exactly pull up any trees in his stroll to victory against Josh Rock.

MVG will need to raise his game a bit to stand a chance.

I think Luke Littler will win it. I think he's playing way better than Michael van Gerwen tonight, he didn't last week.

Littler is a better darts player than Michael van Gerwen, and it's not often we've said that about MVG but he just is - and I think Littler will be alright and he'll probably go on to win tonight now.

Big game this in the semi-final with last week's winner Michael van Gerwen taking on world champion Luke Littler.

But who wins? Thumbs up for Littler and down for MVG - plus let us know your thoughts using the feedback form above.

Luke Humphries let a lead slip and his poor finishing proved costly as Luke Littler won the first match of the evening 6-5.

Michael van Gerwen then enjoyed a dominant 6-2 victory against Josh Rock, who only managed an underwhelming 79.34 average.

Jonny Clayton produced an incredible turnaround as he came from 4-0 down to beat Stephen Bunting 6-4.

After losing the first two legs, Gerwyn Price came from behind against last week's runner-up Gian van Veen to win 6-5

Here's what is coming up in the semi-finals:

• Luke Littler v Michael van Gerwen
• Jonny Clayton v Gerwyn Price

A terrible start for Gerwyn Price who only manages to find 17 with his first three darts. But Gian van Veen can only find 81.

It's then back-to-back 140s from Price either side of one from Van Veen.

Price ends up missing the bullseye as he looks to take out 83.

Gian van Veen also hits the outer bull as he searches for a bullseye to take out 84.

Price then takes out 25.

Here we go, then. Another game going to a decider.

Gian van Veen takes out 36 to win the 10th leg.

Gerwyn Price has the darts in the last leg.

Gerwyn Price requires 131 and ends up setting up tops.

Gian van Veen sees two darts at double 18 go just outside and he is made to pay.

A good marker with his first dart before Price finds the double.

Oh, hello.

A few poor visits from Gian van Veen without any trebles lets Gerwyn Price back into it. He breaks to make it 4-4.

Price only needs one dart at tops as he takes out 69.

He lets out a trademark shout as he does so. That tends to be a sign that he is now feeling confident.

That was more like some of the legs we've seen in the other matches this evening. It took a while.

Gian van Veen misses two darts at a double before Gerwyn Price managed to see off 40 on double 10 after straying inside on tops.

Gian van Veen finds his first 180 of the match in this leg as he goes on to hold his throw.

He finishes with 62, pinning double 16 with his first dart at it.

Gerwyn Price reduces Gian van Veen's advantage to one leg again.

This has been played at a blistering pace so far.

Gerwyn Price delivers the first 180 of the match, but it does not matter.

Gian van Veen responds by taking out 112 with treble 20, 20 and double 16.

Van Veen punches the air after checking out. He stopped Price having a leg-winning chance.

What a picture you paint there Dave....

Gerwyn Price can't take out 156 to win the leg at the first time of asking, missing a dart at tops, but then wraps it up by finding double 10 on his next visit.

A 15-dart leg from Gian van Veen to win the second leg.

Single 20, single 20 and tops to take out 8- to finish it.

Van Veen actually said that Price was quite intimidating when he first started playing him, which could explain him being 1-8 in the head-to-head.

But he's a different player now after winning the European title and getting to the world final, he just keeps getting better and better.

Gian van Veen makes the most of Gerwyn Price faltering after getting to double digits and takes the opening leg.

Time for our last quarter-final.
