One of the headline matches in the second round at the 2025 European Darts Championship on Saturday will see Nathan Aspinall taking on Danny Noppert. The winner of this match between the Asp and Noppy will meet either Ricardo Pietreczko or Jermaine Wattimena in the quarter-final. Let’s get into the match prediction!
Nathan Aspinall continued his incredible form on this year’s European Tour by powering past bottom seed Rob Cross 6-1 in the opening round of this competition on Friday.
The Asp dominated every statistical category in the match, recorded four 180s, a 100.53 three-dart average, a checkout rate of 42.86%, and a highest checkout of 82.
After winning the German Darts Championship last week, Aspinall is now riding a seven-match win streak and has only lost one of his last 12 across all competitions.
Meanwhile, Danny Noppert also delivered an excellent first-round performance to overcome his in-form compatriot Dirk van Duijvenbode 6-3 in the final match on Friday night.
Noppy pinned the most 180s of the first round (7) and maintained a solid 104.88 three-dart average. He hit 4/14 (42.86%) of checkout attempts and recorded a highest checkout of 110.
Noppert has an impressive 7-3 record in his last 10 matches, and has also beaten his upcoming opponent in each of their last four encounters, dating back to January of last year.
