Who Will Win the 2026 Premier League Darts?
Luke Littler will be a short price favorite to win the Premier League for the second time this year.
The teenage sensation will be riding a wave of momentum after winning the World Championship for the second straight year in 2026. Luke Humphries is the reigning Premier League champion after beating Littler in last year’s final. However, his form hasn’t been at the highest level over the last six months.
Other former winners of the Premier League include van Gerwen and Clayton, but both will need to be at their very best to win the title. Instead, at the prices it could be worth chancing Gian van Veen.
Each of the last two Premier League titles have been won by the beaten finalist at the World Championships, and van Veen struggled to replicate his high level of form at Ally Pally in January. He could avenge that loss on his Premier League debut in 2026.
