Frenchman to Start with a Win

First up at Ally Pally, Frenchman Tricole and Australia’s Comito clash on Sunday night. Tricole was runner-up in the 2022 WDF World Darts Championship, and the Auray-born ace will be looking to open this tournament with a routine win.

Tricole is the favourite in game one, and he should have too much quality for the Aussie veteran. The winner will face world champion Luke Humphries in round two. Tricole is our pick to get the job done, and there is good value in 127/100 for the French player to win by a -2.5 leg handicap.

Thibault Tricole Win -2.5 – 127/100

Wattimena to See Off Swiss in Round One

Jermaine Wattimena and Stefan Bellmont do battle in another round-one fixture on Sunday. Wattimena is looking to get past the last-32 stage for the first time, while Bellmont will be making his first World Darts Championship appearance.

Wattimena has plenty of World Championship experience, with his first Alexandra Palace outing coming in 2015. “The Machine Gun” should get past the Swiss in round one, and you can get 4/25 for the Dutchman to prevail.

Jermaine Wattimena Win – 4/25

Barry to Upset Belgian?

Young Irishman Keane Barry kicks off his World Championship on Sunday with a matchup with 39-year-old Belgian Kim Huybrechts. Barry suffered a second-round loss to Michael van Gerwen last year.

Huybrechts has been around for a long time, but Barry is a talented player, and we can see the County Leath-born ace getting the win on opening night at Ally Pally. “Dynamite” is available at the tempting betting odds of 23/20.

Keane Barry Win – 23/20
