Danny Noppert and Ricardo Pietreczko have defied the odds and will meet in the quarter-final of the 2025 European Darts Championship. The winner of this match between Noppie and Pikachu will face either Luke Littler or Luke Humphries in the final four. Let’s get into the match prediction.
Danny Noppert reached the semi-final of this competition last year and is now one win away from doing likewise this season after taking down top seed Nathan Aspinall 10-7 in round two.
Noppie only managed three 180s compared to the Asp’s eight, but he maintained a 101.12 average and was excellent with his closing, hitting 58.82% of checkout attempts and a highest checkout of 130.
The Dutchman now has a record of seven wins and three defeats in his last 10 matches. He has faced this opponent three times in the past and won twice.
Meanwhile, Ricardo Pietreczko is set to feature in his second consecutive European Darts Championship after getting the better of the in-form Jermaine Wattimena 10-6 last night.
Pikachu recorded a three-dart average of 95.44, which included two 180s. He was far better than his opponent on double (55.56%) and pinned a stunning highest checkout of 164.
Pietreczko has split his last 10 matches across all competitions, five wins and five defeats.

Our Danny Noppert vs Ricardo Pietreczko Prediction
For a second night in a row, Ricardo Pietreczko defied the betting odds by beating another higher-ranked player, but he was aided to an extent, with Wattimena playing below the level he has shown in recent weeks.
