Michael van Gerwen vs Josh Rock prediction

Michael van Gerwen took a confidence-boosting nightly win in Newcastle last week, defeating Stephen Bunting, Luke Humphries and Gian van Veen on his way to maximum points.

The Dutchman chose to enter both Players Championship events in Germany at the beginning of the week, reaching the semi-finals on Monday and following that up with a run to the last eight a day later.

Mighty Mike will be feeling reasonably positive about his game then, but so should Josh Rock, who shouldn't be too disheartened after running into a near-110 average from Jonny Clayton on his Premier League debut last week.

The Northern Irishman averaged almost 102 himself, and after choosing to skip the Players Championship double-header, should be well-rested for Antwerp.

That extra freshness could tip the scales in favour of the newcomer, who could be worth backing at decent odds.
