Stephen Bunting made an impressive start to his Darts World Grand Prix campaign by making fairly light work of a tricky opponent in Niko Springer, 2-0 in the opening round of the competition.
Bullet pinned five 180s and averaged 97.02, which was the highest of any player on Day 1. He also recorded a 50% checkout rate (6/12) and a highest checkout of 130.
Bunting is in good form with 12 wins now earned in his last 15 matches in all competitions, but he has lost two of his last three against his upcoming opponent.
Meanwhile, Danny Noppert faced a stern test in his opening match of the World Grand Prix, but he managed to see off Jermaine Wattimena 2-1 in a clash that produced 12 legs.
Noppy pinned four 180s and maintained a three-dart average of 85.94. He had a 50% conversion on the double and recorded a highest checkout of 158.

Our Stephen Bunting vs Danny Noppert Prediction
Stephen Bunting lived up to expectations in his opening match here at the World Grand Prix by beating Niko Springer in straight sets, but he now faces a much tougher opponent in Danny Noppert.
Noppy may be ranked 10 places below Bullet, but he did beat him fairly comprehensively when they met at the World Series Finals last month. We feel this match could go down to a final set to decide. Our Stephen Bunting vs Danny Noppert prediction is over 3.5 sets.
