Luke Littler is aiming for the biggest title of his fledgling career so far when he faces the top three ranked players in the world in the Premier League Darts finals tonight.

And the youngster will need to beat fourth-placed Smith if he wants to book his place in the final at the O2 Arena, with Humphries taking on seven-time tournament winner Van Gerwen in the other semi-final.

Both semi-finals, which take place from around 7.15pm, are a best-of-19-leg shootout, while the final – from around 9.15pm BST – is a best-of-21-leg match.
