Chris Dobey and Damon Heta will meet on Sunday in their second match of the group stage at the 2025 Grand Slam of Darts. The Heat and Hollywood are on two points each and joint-first in Group B. Let’s get into the match prediction.
Chris Dobey kicked off his Grand Slam of Darts campaign with an impressive 5-1 victory over world number 147 Jurjen van der Velde on the opening evening of the competition.
Hollywood recorded one 180 and had a three-dart average of 95.35 compared to his opponent’s 89.62. He was solid on the double at 55.56% and scored a highest checkout of 130.
Dobey won PC33 and reached the final of the PC34 event last week. He has now won 13 of his last 14 matches across all competitions.
Meanwhile, Damon Heta also got off to a flying start to the competition last night, powering past world number 39 Martin Lukeman 5-1, giving him an identical record to Dobey.
The Heat maintained a solid 89.46 three-dart average and pinned two 180s in his opener. He converted 5/12 on the outer rins and recorded a highest checkout of 120.
Heta has split his last five matches, five wins and five draws. He lost his last match against this opponent, but that was the only loss suffered against Dobey in nine encounters.
