Nathan Aspinall vs Chris Dobey prediction

Heading in to Night 13, Nathan Aspinall is hanging onto the fourth playoff spot on leg difference ahead of Michael van Gerwen, as the race to the O2 heats up.

The Asp performed well in Liverpool last week, averaging 104 against Luke Humphries, but was denied by a 113 average from the world number one. The Stockport thrower then entered the Austrian Darts Open over the weekend but lost his opener to Kevin Doets.

Chris Dobey fared a little better in Graz, losing to eventual champion Martin Schindler in the quarter-finals, but he still has a lot of work to do in order to make it into the top four in the Premier League.

This is a difficult one to call. It is the third meeting between the two in this year's tournament, with both boasting a win apiece, and this could easily go either way. Expect a close battle that could go the distance.

Nathan Aspinall vs Chris Dobey tip: Over 9.5 legs
