Andrew Gilding vs Luke Woodhouse prediction

Often a man who rises to the big occasion, Andrew Gilding is once again playing some excellent darts on the TV stage, with the 55-year-old averaging 99.01 in his 3-1 victory over eighth seed Chris Dobey in the second round.

The former UK Open champion also impressed in his first-round success against Cam Crabtree, and looks a dangerous opponent right now.

Although Luke Woodhouse's numbers aren't as impressive, he has just dropped just one set in wins against Boris Krcmar and Max Hopp.

'Woody' has been in solid form in recent months, and is bidding to emulate his run to the fourth round last year.

Gilding has been consistently excellent so far though. He has won all three previous meetings with Woodhouse - two of those coming in 2025 - and we're backing 'Goldfinger' to move into the last 16.
