by Steve Ashfield in PDC - Premier League Darts Predictions
Chris Dobey takes on Stephen Bunting and both players will be desperate for a win. This is a quarter-final match of Night 14 which is being played in Leeds. 'Hollywood' is sixth in the table with Bunting still bottom. Here's our match prediction.
Although this is being contested by the bottom two players in the 2025 Darts Premier League, it's a repeat of the final two weeks ago. On that occasion. Dobey won to breathe some life into his campaign. He has lost his next two matches though and begins this week still seven points behind the final play-off position. This is his third league match against Bunting, the other two were both won 6-2.
With just eight points, Stephen Bunting is 12 points behind fourth spot. He'd need to win the last three Nights to have any chance of qualifying for the play-offs. Bunting has won one Night so far but 11 of the 13 Nights have seen him lose at this stage. A key reason for his lack of success has been his checkout percentage. At just 37.82, that's the worst in the league and 2.8% lower than that of his opponent.
The winner will face either Luke Humphries or Michael van Gerwenn and we tip Dobey to get the win.
