JOSH TO STAY ROCK BOTTOM? – BETMGM PREMIER LEAGUE DARTS NIGHT 6 TIPS

It’s simply a huge night for Josh Rock.

The Northern Irishman is already five points adrift of the closest player to him – Night 6 quarter-final opponent Stephen Bunting.

He has to pick up points or he faces becoming the also-ran of the 2026 BetMGM Premier League Darts season.

Freshly crowned UK Open champion Luke Littler won last week in Cardiff and takes on Gerwyn Price in his opener here having moved ominously into the top four.

League leader Jonny Clayton faces a somewhat faltering Michael van Gerwen while three-time finalist Gian van Veen goes head to head with defending champion Luke Humphries.

The Premier League table is taking shape and we have you covered for Night 6 and beyond in our BetMGM Premier League Darts Hub, which includes exclusive content, expert tips, the latest promotions and more.

BetMGM Premier League Darts Tips: 9/1 Night 6 Acca

  • Rock to beat Bunting
  • Clayton 97.5+ average vs Van Gerwen
  • Over 9.5 legs in Humphries vs Van Veen
  • Over 6.5 180s in Price vs Litter

Leg 1 – Josh Rock to beat Stephen Bunting @ 10/13

Bottom of the pile with zero wins or points after five nights, Rock cannot allow that gap to become bigger.

He’s shown what he is capable of with his magnificent Belfast nine-darter and will be feeling good after a run to the UK Open semi-finals which included a win over Bunting.

He has, in fact, won the last two meetings but will be mindful of his five consecutive losses to the Bullet prior to that.

Standings Ahead of Night 6

And his performance against Littler last week was an improvement. Rock averaged over 103 in defeat and, while the win is yet to come, he at least put up more of a fight.

Bunting will know exactly how the man at the foot of the table is feeling. It took him until Night 9 last year to pick up his first win, by which point he couldn't make up enough ground to make an impact.

Rock can’t wait that long. He must win this game to kickstart his season… and we think he can.

Odds of 10/13 for Rock to win are hard to ignore – and backed even more so by the fact BetMGM will pay out as a winner if he goes three legs to the good regardless of final result.

Leg 2 – Jonny Clayton 97.5+ average vs Michael van Gerwen @ 8/11

Clayton is enjoying a dream return to the Premier League.

Five points clear at the top, he takes on Van Gerwen here for the first time in this year’s competition.

He is yet to lose a quarter-final tie – and his consistent throwing is playing a huge part in that.

His year-to-date average is a tad under that at 96 yet, in the BetMGM Premier League, the Welshman is a different animal.

The Ferret is averaging 98.91 so far, the fourth highest, but has also played the most games of anyone.

His 100.90 average in the final in Cardiff wasn’t enough to beat a revitalised Littler but he also held the highest average in a match for the 2026 Premier League with 109.81 on Night 1 before Littler topped 111 last week.

The 8/11 for Clayton to average over the 97.5 threshold makes sense here.

Leg 3 – Over 9.5 legs in Luke Humphries vs Gian van Veen @ 49/50

Van Veen has either made the final or lost in the quarter-final on every night so far.

He faces defending champion Humphries here, who is yet to really get going. Cool Hand was impressive in beating Van Gerwen 6-1 last week but lost to Clayton afterwards and thus remains outside the play-off spots.

These two have had their fair share of clashes going to the wire – in fact their only meeting in the BetMGM Premier League so far ended 6-5 to the Dutchman in a pulsating clash in Glasgow.

They sit second and third in terms of the number of matches lasting over 9.5 legs – 64% for Van Veen and 63% for Humphries.

With the Giant winning seven of their last eight meetings, Cool Hand will be desperate to turn that run around – his 5-0 Masters win being his only triumph since 2024.

It is a tough one to call; while Humphries has struggled for wins, having the highest average of any player so far shows he is not playing badly but just labouring to get over the line.

As such, we’re looking at the 49/50 for over that 9.5 legs threshold to land again in this one.

Leg 4 – Over 6.5 180s in Gerwyn Price vs Luke Littler @ 13/20

Littler is back – if he ever truly went away.

Averaging over 111 in the final win over Clayton last week was sensational and, while not at his mind-boggling best in Minehead, he was still too good for the rest of the field at the UK Open.

Price awaits in the final quarter-final in Nottingham, with the Welshman just simmering after two semi-final spots in a row.

Both of these have topped the 180 scoring on one night each and Littler’s maximum hitting in particular needs no introduction. He’s hit 881 in the last 12 months, while Price sits in third on 636.

Only Humphries averages more than the Nuke’s 3.67 per match and, after last week’s showing, you really get the impression he is going to properly hit his stride.

The Iceman has 24 maximums in his nine games. Night 5, though, was disappointing, and he threw just two in two games. Take away this anomaly, and his average look a lot healthier.

There were five in their semi-final clash last week but a price of 13/20 for over 6.5 180s in Nottingham carries significant attraction as part of our accumulator.

BETMGM’S 6/1 NIGHT 6 PRICE VS LITTLER BET BUILDER

  • 1+ 180 in leg one
  • Over 9.5 legs
  • Littler highest checkout

These two met in the semi-final last week and Littler triumphed 6-3 after getting off to a flyer by hitting a 180 with just his second throw of the game.

Given that – and both players' penchant for a maximum with over 1,500 between them in the last 12 months – the prospect of a 180 in the first leg again holds strong appeal.

Price has had a staggering number of matches go the distance this year. All of his nine games have had over 8.5 legs, while 67% of his matches have ended 6-5.

Their meeting last week was his first in four to have under 9.5 legs and, while their last four regular-season Premier League meetings have ended 6-3, the way Price’s matches are going this season it’s hard to see this one not lasting at least 10 legs.

Price vs Littler TOTT

Yet, for all his return to form, the Iceman hasn’t really set the tournament alight with high checkouts.

He’s hit just four checkouts over a ton in his nine games and has had a higher checkout than his opponent just three times.

Littler hit the big fish twice last week, including against Price. He then added another a day later in Minehead for good measure.

The Nuke is purring – and you wouldn't back against him clocking a higher checkout than Price again here.
