Play kicks-off at 2pm for the afternoon session in Wolverhampton and features darting villain Ted Hankey taking on the unflappable Mark Walsh.
Hankey is the last remaining BDO player in the competition and will be hoping to fly the flag for darts' other code by reaching the Semi-Finals.
Any tactics on the oche are unlikely to phase Walshie however; the Abotts Langley thrower has looked in fine form over the course of the week and is beginning to bring his consistent floor form to the big stage.
The second match of the afternoon sees Gary Anderson face The Bull Terry Jenkins. Anderson seems to have overcome some early jitters in the event and will be hoping to continue the same heavy scoring that saw him demolish James Wade 10-3 to reach this stage.
Jenkins has reached the Quarter-Finals of this event every year since it began, but will be out to go one step further by defeating The Flying Scotsman today.
Two more mouthwatering games follow in the evening session, featuring three world champions and a self-confessed bad-boy of PDC darts.
Mark Webster and Adrian Lewis open up the night; both have been in terrific form going into the game, which should make for a classic.
Lewis recorded a 109 average earlier in the week and survived a late rally from John Part last night to reach the last eight.
Webster is yet to be defeated in the event so far and will be hoping for a repeat of his performance against Lewis in the Premier League which saw him record a 110 average on the way to an 8-2 hammering of the world champion.
Rounding off the night is another potential thriller as rivals Phil Taylor and Paul Nicholson go head to head on television once again.
The Power sent out a message to the field with a stunning 112 average in his 10-3 rout of Wes Newton last night and claims Nicholson's on-stage antics will not affect him in the slightest.
Nicholson has been made to work hard to reach this stage and will be encouraged by his good record against Taylor in major events.
He famously claimed to 'put Taylor to bed' in an interview at the World Matchplay and will be looking to back up his words by taking the scalp of the tournament favourite Taylor this evening.
Action gets underway from 2pm at the Wolverhampton Civic Hall, with selected matches streamed live over the best of 31 legs.
