    Hoping young Luke becomes World Champ tonight, this final has potential to a classic

    Certainly should be !
    They are clearly the best two in the tournament.
    I think Littler might edge it but hope my ’s on MVG proves successful

    I enjoy your posts mate but I'm not the best at interpreting codes. As in.

    I’d like to see Littler win it but have a sneaky feeling you will be celebrating tonight.
    MVG looks like he feels he has a point to prove with people almost writing him off this year whilst eulogising over the 2 Luke’s
    He looks much more like his old self without having hit top form.

    Hope you’re right but Littlers incessant amount of 180’s regularly gives him first stab at doubles ( after 3 sets on most occasions ).

    Normally I’d cheer for a Brit against a foreign opponent but Van Gerwen has always come across as a top bloke to me & I’d be happy for either to win.

    I just hope it’s a really tight game & goes all the way with plenty of drama.

    This. I've been too busy this week to do more than flick in and out of the tournament but I'm looking forward to what promises to be a cracking final.

    Funny, I always feel MVG comes across as a bit of an arse!

    Not really bothered about that. I’d like Littler to win - I have a seventeen year old son myself who likes his darts.

    But I’m just hoping for a quality match with two averages north of 105. I’m expecting that to be the case to be honest.

    It’s probably because I only watch the world championships & the premier league occasionally so I don’t see enough of any of them for them to start annoying me.

    I think a Littler’s win definitely better for the sport too. He’s already massive but if he wins tonight he’s a full blown superstar.

    I didn't know our French CB also plays professional darts.

    MVG just coming into good form, tight game and I'll go for MVG to win it by 2 sets.

    Be fantastic for him and I think he’ll do it.
    Shame with how Stephen Bunting was treated last game though. The media didn’t want him anywhere near the final.

    Hope MVG wins. I put before it started 8.50 of Sky Bet free bets on him at 8/1 so will get 68 quid if he does.

    He knows how to get over the line and at the worst wouldn't meet one of the two Lukes until the final.

    Littler seems so confident, keeps that up and the title is his!
