Gerwyn Price vs Jonny Clayton – Match Predictions
Can Gerwyn Price defend his spot at the top of the Premier League table on Thursday? He gets into things against Jonny Clayton to open Night 13 and here are our darts predictions for the match.
Prediction 1: Price -2.5 Handicap
We start our predictions with the pick of a bigger Price handicap line. Two of Price’s three victories over Clayton in this season’s Premier League were by a 6-1 scoreline, the other a 6-4. So it may be worth pushing the line again as Price is in great form still.
Prediction 2: Price to Win & Most 180s & Highest Checkout
Price has banged out more than double the number of 180s in this season’s league than his compatriot has done. The Iceman has been in a great flow of form for a while now and the consistency is up there to see him reign as King of the Oche.
Gerwyn Price and Jonny Clayton Latest Form and Performances
Ahead of Thursday’s exciting quarter-final clash in Leeds, let’s take a look at what form Clayton and Price have been in recently.
The Price Is Right In Form
Price reached last week’s final in Rotterdam where he was beaten by Nathan Aspinall. But the points haul still saw him move to the top of the table because of his overall great form. Price comes in fresh after skipping the Austrian Darts Open on the weekend after having also made a great start to the 2023 European Tour.
Jonny Clayton Raises His Game
Jonny Clayton was a semi-final loser last week in the Netherlands in Premier League action, beaten by Price. However, Clayton bounced straight back to win the Austrian Darts Open on the weekend in a fairly convincing fashion. Sitting fourth in the PL, he needs to keep battling to reach the Finals night.
Gerwyn Price vs Jonny Clayton Head to Head
There have been four Premier League meetings already this season between the two players, with Price 3-1 up from those. Two of those were very convincing wins, and in all competitions, Price has lost only one of his last eight against Clayton.
