Sixth seed Jonny Clayton gets his World Series of Darts campaign underway. Round one sees him take on unseeded Maik Kuivenhoven. His opponent is ranked 72nd in the world and that's 67 places below him. Our prediction is that Clayton will win this match on a -1.5 handicap.
In round two, the victor here will take on unseeded opposition, either Motumu Saika or Callan Rydz.
Jonny Clayton finished sixth in the World Series of Darts Order of Merit. He won the qualifier played in New Zealand, reached two other semi-finals and a last eight appearance in the four tournaments in which he played. Last year saw him lose in the second round of this tournament, being beaten by eventual runner-up Luke Littler.
This year has seen the Ferret also make it to two Players Championship finals.
Maik Kuivenhoven is a Tour Card qualifier for this tournament. He wasn't initially scheduled to be playing but the Dutchman was given a place after player withdrawals.
Earlier this year, he reached his first Players Championship final. There's been little success in the main televised tournaments with his best performance being reaching the second round of the UK Open. He's struggled for form in recent tournaments with five of his last six matches being lost.
