Luke Woodhouse vs Boris Krcmar prediction
It’s been a really successful year for Luke Woodhouse, who boasts the ability to average well above 100 when at his best. But he needs to turn those strong tour performances into televised success, especially in a competition such as this. He reached the round of 16 last year and has the ability to go even further this time around.
However, Croatian Boris Krcmar knows what it takes to beat Woodhouse, having done so in each of their previous two encounters. His experience has served him well at the World Darts Championship in the past and the short best of five sets format definitely benefits him. A good start here for Krcmar would make things very interesting.
But Woodhouse’s quality has to be the main factor to consider when assessing this match-up. He’s got all the tools to really make a good run this year and backing him to overcome Krcmar has to be favoured in this one.
