The penultimate match on Day 11 at the 2026 PDC World Darts Championship will see Luke Littler taking on David Davies. The winner of this match between The Nuke and The Magnet will meet either Joe Cullen or Mensur Suljovic in the third round. Let’s get into the match prediction.
World number one Luke Littler kicked off his World Championship title defence in fine style, defeating Darius Labanauskas 3-0, winning nine legs to his opponent's five.
The Nuke recorded the second-highest three-dart average in the first round of the competition (101.54), which included seven 180s. He converted 64.29% of checkout attempts and a highest checkout of 124.
Littler is now on a 14-match win streak, a period during which he won the Grand Slam of Darts and Players Championship finals titles.
Meanwhile, part-time player David Davies made a stunning debut at the Ally Pally in round one, securing a commanding victory over the fancied Mario Vandenbogaerde on Day 3.
Despite averaging 86.50 to his opponent’s 87.87, the Magnet pinned three 180s, while managing a checkout rate of 37.5 and recording a highest checkout of 81.
Davies has split his last 10 matches, five wins and five losses, but is understandably a massive underdog in this match.
