| Posted: 21 Mar 2013 03:49 AM PDT Michael van Gerwen has the opportunity to move to the top of the 2013 Premier League table following a victory over Gary Anderson in Cardiff on Thursday. Although his fellow compatriot, Raymond van Barneveld, may take back the spot later in the evening, Mighty Mike will be keen to try to pick up maximum points against the Scotsman to continue his impressive campaign on his debut in the Premier League. Van Gerwen has lost just once so far in six games with defeat coming to dual-world champion, Adrian Lewis, two weeks ago. The 2013 World Championship runner up has won on three occasions and drawn twice during the tournament. Anderson on the other hand, is under real pressure to avoid the drop from the league when the bottom two players are eliminated and currently sits in eighth place. Mighty Mike won the last three legs against the man from Fleetwood in Manchester last week after the scores were locked at 4-4. The Dutchman finished with an average of 101.52 despite his finishing not being very clinical. He hit just 7 of his 17 attempts at a double but it proved to be enough to bring up his third win this year in the Premier League. Anderson, on the other hand, had to hold his throw in the final leg of the match against Lewis to pick up a much needed point. Despite getting off to a good start, the Scot found himself under pressure in the final stages of the clash to avoid a further defeat. The critical point in the game came in leg 10 where Jackpot missed several darts to break the throw, instead Anderson took advantage to level the scores. The 2011 winner needed just 10 darts to secure the draw in leg 12. Fans of darts can take advantage of the best news, tips, and darts Premier League odds on the betting.betfair website. |
