Andy Hamilton v Kevin Painter preview

Related Articles

Hamilton is currently seventh in the standings with 11 points with Painter just one place above but on the same number of points.

And with Adrian Lewis, James Wade and Raymond van Barneveld all locked together on 12 points, the winner of this clash could well go through to the semi-finals.

The table is so tight that it could even go down to the positive / negative leg difference over the entire 14 weeks of battle.

Hamilton is widely regarded as one of the nicest men in darts and would be a popular winner on the night to eliminate Painter, who has not always endeared himself to the fans or his fellow players.

‘The Hammer’ has only won three matches in the entire 13 weeks of play but, in football parlance, has been hard to beat, with five draws.

And he has not been beaten since week nine and showed his class with an 8-4 victory over Whitlock last time out to keep his play-off hopes alive.

But it will not be easy against ‘The Artist’ who has also run into some decent form just at the right time.

After losing five on the bounce he has won two of the last three and took care of double world champion Lewis with ease in Birmingham seven days ago.

Painter could still go through with a draw – as long as Whitlock beats Lewis and van Barneveld and Wade do not draw – but he will not want to gamble on that happening and there could be some fireworks in this one.

Odds: Hamilton Evens, Painter 11/8, draw 9/2 @ Betfred
