The penultimate quarter-final on Night 13 of the 2026 Premier League Darts season will see Jonny Clayton taking on Gian van Veen in Aberdeen on Thursday. The Ferret leads the league standings, while the Giant is in sixth place. Let’s get into the match prediction.
Jonny Clayton maintained his place at the top of the Premier League standings last week by reaching another final. However, he lost that match 6-1 to Luke Littler - his second successive weekly final defeat to the Nuke.
The Ferret is putting up solid numbers. He has pinned 76 180s and is averaging 97.40, while holding the second-best checkout rate in the competition of 46.00 after 12 weeks.
Clayton has won seven of his last 10 matches across all competitions (L3) and has beaten his upcoming opponent in their last three encounters - all of which have come in the Prem.
Meanwhile, Gian van Veen suffered a 6-5 defeat to Clayton last week in the semi-final in Liverpool and now trails the top four in the standings by four points with four weeks to go.
The Giant’s scoring has dipped in recent weeks, now averaging 95.37, including 44 180s, which is the second-lowest in the competition. However, he has been solid on the outer ring (41.78%).
Van Veen reached round three in PC11 before losing in the first round of PC12 earlier this week. His record now reads as seven losses and just three wins in his last 10 matches.
