Exciting news for all darts fans as the highly-talented Luke Littler makes his return to the World Darts Championship stage tonight. After his impressive debut last year, where he made it all the way to the final, Littler is back and ready to make history at Ally Pally. With his reputation and skills preceding him, he has been named the pre-tournament favorite this time around.
Although he hasn't been at his very best during this tournament, Littler has still managed to secure his place in the round of 16 with wins over Ryan Meikle and Ian White. And with the recent surprise exit of defending champion Luke Humphries, Littler's chances of becoming the youngest-ever world champion have only gotten better.
Tonight, Littler will face off against Ryan Joyce in the round-of-16. Joyce, known for his impressive double-hitting abilities, has also been in top form, defeating Danny Noppert and Ryan Searle to reach this stage of the competition. This match promises to be an intense one, with both players eager to move on to the quarter-finals.
Littler's match will be the final one of the evening session, following the clashes between Stephen Bunting vs Luke Woodhouse and Michael van Gerwen vs Jeffrey de Graaf. While the exact start time is dependent on the duration of the previous matches, it is expected to be around 9:45pm GMT.
If Littler manages to beat Joyce, he will face either Nathan Aspinall or Ricardo Pietreczko in the quarter-finals. However, Littler is not taking anything for granted and is fully focused on his match against Joyce tonight. He knows he can do better and is determined to improve his performance, especially on his doubles.
For those unable to attend the live event, the World Darts Championship will be televised by Sky Sports from December 15th until the final on January 3rd. Viewers can also catch the action online through Sky Go. So don't miss out on the excitement and tune in to watch Luke Littler and the other top players battle it out for the ultimate title of world champion.
