Thursday’s action at the 2025 Grand Slam of Darts kicks off with Lukas Wenig taking on Niko Springer in a second-round matchup. The winner of this match between Luu and Meenzer Bub will meet either Michael van Gerwen or Danny Noppert in the quarter-final. Let’s get into the match prediction!
Lukas Wenig defied the betting odds in a big way during the group stage of the 2025 Grand Slam of Darts, as he clinched top spot in Group H with four points from his three games.
Luu booked his spot in the second round by beating Cameron Crabtree 5-1 on Tuesday night. He averaged 88.69 and recorded a highest checkout of 167, while his opponent only converted 1/13 on doubles.
Wenig is now 5-5 in his last 10 matches in all competitions, but has not beaten his upcoming opponent in their last four encounters.
Meanwhile, Niko Springer finished second in Group G with four points, but he enters this match off the back of a 5-3 defeat to Beau Greaves on Tuesday night.
While Meenzer Bub’s scoring was on par with Greaves’, he struggled to close out matches, pinning only 37.5% (3/8) of his checkout attempts and recording a highest checkout of just 56.
Like Wenig, Springer has split his last 10 matches, five wins and five defeats. However, he was far too good for his compatriot when they met last, winning the match 6-1 at the ET5 event in April.

Our Lukas Wenig vs Niko Springer Prediction
Niko Springer enters this match as the favourite given his superior world ranking, but he was nowhere close to the level we saw earlier in the tournament on Tuesday night when he got taken apart by Beau Greaves.
Lukas Wenig, on the other hand, has gotten better with each match in this competition and produced his best performance in his last match, which would have given him plenty of confidence coming into this one. We fancy the underdog to keep this one close. Our Lukas Wenig vs Niko Springer prediction is Lukas Wenig +3.5.
