Night 2 of the 2026 Premier League Darts season kicks off with a blockbuster - Luke Littler taking on Luke Humphries in Antwerp. The Nuke is sixth in the league standings, while Cool Hand is fourth. Let’s get into the match prediction.
Luke Littler is the favourite to win this year’s Premier League, but his campaign got off to an unexpected start, as he lost his first match 6-4 to debutant Gian van Veen in Newcastle.
The Nuke averaged 96.98 and pinned four 180s, both higher than his opponent, but he only made 33% of his checkout attempts (4/112) and recorded a highest checkout of just 50.
That result brought an end to Littler’s nine-match win streak, a period during which he won the inaugural edition of the Saudi Masters and the PDC World Masters.
Meanwhile, Luke Humphries kicked off his campaign with a 6-5 victory over Gerwyn Price but lost his semi-final matchup against eventual Night 1 winner Michael van Gerwen 6-2.
Against MVG, Cool Hand looked out of sorts. While he did have a solid average of 97.02, he only managed two 180s and a checkout rate of 18.18%. His highest checkout was just 52.
Humphries has yet to win a title this year. In his 11 games in 2026, he has won seven and lost four, including the final of the PDC World Masters to Littler at the start of this month.

Our Luke Littler vs Luke Humphries Prediction
Luke Littler had a very poor start to his Premier League campaign, given the standards he has set this year alone, and there is no doubt that he will be determined to make amends for that here in Antwerp.
Luke Humphries, on the other hand, has been nowhere near his best this year and was beaten by The Nuke less than a couple of weeks ago in the PDC World Masters. Littler has won each of the last head-to-head encounters, and we feel he will extend that record in this one. Our Luke Littler vs Luke Humphries prediction is Luke Littler wins.
