Littler Expected To Bounce Back In 2025 World Match Play

2024 marked Luke Littler’s World Match Play debut and one that he’d like to forget after being knocked out in the opening round by Michael van Gerwen.

Fast track to 2025 and darts betting sites are backing Littler to bounce back strong and potentially come out on top this year. He is going into the tournament as the number two ranked darts player in the world having won two of his last three and three of his last five outings. He gets a decent draw in the opening round against Ryan Searle where he is already a massive -700 favorite to win and advance.

Those looking for more plus money opportunities here should look no further than Luke Humphries at +400 odds. He’s the current number one ranked player in the world, he’s beaten Littler in their past two meetings, and is the defending World Match Play champion.

Anyone backing history while they bet here can go even further down to Michael van Gerwen at +1600 odds. He’s made five finals appearances in World Match Play and has won three championships.
