The final day of World Series of Darts Finals action from the Braehead Arena in Glasgow sees six of the WSoD seeds, 2017's breakthrough player and the performer of the tournament compete for the title.
Starting the quarter-finals are bipolar disorder's James Wade and Belgian kid Dimitri Van den Bergh. The Dream Maker produced his greatest ever performance in dumping out Raymond van Barneveld last night, and a repeat of anything close to that will surely eliminate Wade, who struggled against Simon Stevenson.
Gary Anderson and Gerwyn Price are up next in their first TV meeting. Gando was not pushed by Chris Dobey whatsoever in a near-walkover of Hollywood, while the Iceman was involved in a blustering bravado battle with Aussie bogan Corey Cadby that went to a deciding leg.
A repeat of last Sunday's European Championship final follows with Michael van Gerwen playing Rob Cross. MVG wasn't pushed by Max Hopp whatsoever with Voltage having to fight off a Kyle Anderson fightback. This is the first meeting between the two in 4 games that hasn't been a final - which just shows the Kent ex-electrician's darting progression - and Cross won that one back in September.
Ending the last 8 are Daryl Gurney and Peter Wright. Neither man was particularly pushed in their last 16 games against Simon Whitlock and Justin Pipe respectively, but the Clown will have to hope Superchin's finishing is off otherwise a repeat of last week's Euros QF beckons.
Coverage starts at 12:45pm UK time on ITV4, with the evening session from 7:00pm on the same channel.

Incredible the sacrifices he's made to play full-time.
Jackson White
Ha ha, time for /180/.
Seems that Gando and Cross are the only ones who can save us. I don't think Wade or van den Bergh can pull it off, and the rest are just the usual pricks.
Angel Powell
Too bad Cross already has to play against MVG.
Right in the feels

This, and he should change his nick at some point. Dream Maker is not fitting for a grown-up imo. Or is it some inside joke I'm not getting?

If Dimitri had gone for tops on 106 at 3-0 up, he would have won that.
Incidentally, that defeat means the automatic Grand Slam qualifiers have been confirmed.
