Really good tournament this one.

Been some good matches already.

Looking forward to the MVG, Littler match tonight

What's the format David? How many legs are there?, Skybet have boosted both players to hit 5x 180s and one ton plus checkout each but I would not want to take this if it's just a first to 5 legs would need to be more.

Its first to 10 legs,  1st round.

Goes to sudden death if it reaches 12 all as you must win by 2 clear legs

Been hearing stories about Littler bombing out early in the last couple of tournaments, hope he's back on form.

I've watched Littler since he came on the scene.

He knows how good he is and needs to be challenged. He slacks off in some games or it seems like that anyway.

If you go back to the premier league final, Littler was completely focused on EVERY shot and won quite easily.

I'm pretty certain he'll be up for tonight's game

Littler  got knocked out with a 70 average in a recent pro tour event.   I would also be wary of 180s from these guys as they have form for dropping to the treble 19s

You always seem to get a run for your money with Littler, if he gets beat it's only just.  It was on Matthew Edgars Youtube channel I saw the thumbnail about Littler underperforming in the last couple of tournaments, never got a chance to actually watch it.

I only get to see the televised tournaments.

I genuinely think that littler even at this early stage in his career struggles to get 100% motivated for the lesser tournaments.

I'll be very surprised if he doesn’t perform tonight

Van Gerwin is terrible for this, he has nights where he peppers the treble 20 but there are just as many nights where he just can't hit them and drops down to 19s continually.

Unlucky you got the 180s  just unlucky with the Littler ton finish

Looking like an mvg victory.

The turning point was littler not levelling at 5 all when he had the chance.

Great game but mvg just been a bit more consistent on the scoring 

Littler just made one or two weak throws at the wrong time.

MVG meant business

Some good games tonight. Hard to call.

Humphries v bunting should be the stand out game. I would like to see bunting win it, but Humphries game is pretty floorless at the moment so bunting will need to play at his absolute best.

Looking forward to it though

Aspinal v Wade seems a strange one to me, everyone seems to think Wade wins this but I would have thought Aspinal was the player getting more results recently.  Clayton v Van Den Bergh is a difficult one to split also VDB does really well here so I think he just edges it.

I can't see Wade winning that unless aspinall is still struggling with his elbow
