Darts Betting Tips - Premier League Week 14

Darts. 3 darts in triple 20.

Thursday brings another huge night of action, and our darts betting tips head to the First Direct Arena in Leeds for what promises to be a pivotal Night 14 in the 2026 Premier League Darts campaign.

Luke Littler sits top of the table and is already through to The O2 alongside Jonny Clayton, but the race for the remaining play-off spots is fierce. Luke Humphries, Gian van Veen, Michael van Gerwen, and Gerwyn Price are all locked in a four-way battle for the two remaining berths, which means every leg counts on Thursday night.

With just three nights of the regular season remaining after this one, the margins are razor-thin. A nightly win is worth four points, a runners-up finish two, and a semi-final exit one - so the difference between qualifying and watching the play-offs from home could come down to a single deciding leg in Leeds.

Darts Betting Tips: Four Quarter-Final Calls

The night opens with Gerwyn Price against Jonny Clayton. Price is the odds-on favourite for this - he won the European Grand Prix the weekend before Night 13 and produced the highest single-match average of the entire 2026 Premier League season. Clayton is already qualified and looked disinterested in a 6-2 quarter-final loss in Aberdeen, so take Price at 8/13 to win this one.

Next up is Luke Littler versus Michael van Gerwen. Littler beat Humphries in the Night 13 final in Aberdeen, and he will be odds-on again here against van Gerwen. But 3/10 in a best-of-11 against a seven-time Premier League champion looks very short. MVG led their most recent meeting 5-3 before Littler rescued it, and he has a winning record over the young champion in 2026. I like Littler to get through, but MVG +1.5 legs at 4/5 is the value play in our darts tips rather than backing Littler at a cramped price.

Third on the card is Humphries against Josh Rock. The defending champion is 1/2 and should win, but the angle is the margin. Humphries averaged more than 103 in Aberdeen, led the final 5-3 before a narrow defeat, and is throwing the best darts of his season. Against a bottom-placed Rock with no play-off hopes, Humphries -1.5 legs at 11/10 is my darts betting tip selection for this one.

Van Veen rounds off the quarter-finals against Bunting. The Dutchman beat Clayton 6-2 in Aberdeen and is fighting for a play-off spot. Bunting's hopes, meanwhile, are effectively over. Van Veen to win at 8/13 is the straightforward call.

5/1 Darts Tips: Humphries To Win The Night

Despite pushing Littler to a deciding leg in Aberdeen, Humphries has still not won a night in 2026.

That changes on Thursday.

He is a Leeds United fan playing in front of a Leeds crowd, has the most favourable draw of the top players - facing bottom-placed Rock in the quarter-final - and carries the desperation of a man who needs nightly points to defend his Premier League title at The O2.

The head-to-head record supports him too. Humphries beat Rock 6-2 when they met in Glasgow earlier this season, and his recent form curve is pointing in exactly the right direction.

Littler will be a short price to win a record sixth night, and on talent alone, that is hard to argue with.

But Humphries at 5/1 with the hometown crowd behind him and everything to play for is my standout darts betting tip of the night.
