Dave Chisnall and Ricardo Pietreczko will face off in Round 2 at the 2026 PDC World Darts Championship on Saturday afternoon. The winner of this match between Cizzy and Pikachu will meet either Andreas Harrysson or Motomu Sakai in the third round. Let’s get into the match prediction.
Dave Chisnall earned his spot in the second round at the Ally Pally this year by defeating Fallon Sherrock 3-0 on Thursday night. He bowed out at this stage last year to Ricky Evans.
Chizzy averaged 89.66 and recorded two 180s in his opener. He also pinned a highest checkout of 160, but was aided by wasteful finishing by Sherrock, who missed 20/23 at the out ring.
The Englishman has a record of five wins and five losses in his last 10 matches, and has beaten his upcoming opponent in two of their three previous encounters.
Meanwhile, Ricardo Pietreczko got up and running at the World Championships by seeing off Jose de Sousa 3-1 in his opening match. He reached the last 16 at the Ally Pally last year.
Pikachu maintained a three-dart average of 90.86 and managed four 180s in his opener. He was solid on doubles, making 44% of his attempts, while recording a highest checkout of 94.
Pietreczko has won six of his last 10 matches across all competitions, with four of those wins coming in his last six.

Our Dave Chisnall vs Ricardo Pietreczko Prediction
Dave Chisnall got through his first round clash against the Queen of the Palace without dropping a set, but he was aided by Sherrock's poor finishing and relatively modest scoring average.
While Chizzy does have a superior placement to Ricardo Pietreczko in the PDC Order of Merit, the German has been steadily climbing the ranks in recent years and enjoyed his best run at the Worlds last year. Even if the Englishman wins this match, we do not feel it will be by a big margin. Our Dave Chisnall vs Ricardo Pietreczko prediction is Ricardo Pietreczko +1.5.
