Luke Littler is back in action tonight and one game away from the PDC World Darts Championship final after another impressive run at Ally Pally.
Following his sensational run to the final on debut last year, the teenage sensation arrived as the pre-tournament favourite this time around.
After wins against Ryan Meikle and Ian White, The Nuke was pushed all the way by World No.33 Ryan Joyce but came through in a last-set decider to reach the quarter-finals.
And the 17-year-old continued his good form against Nathan Aspinall on Wednesday, cruising to a 5-2 win to reach the final four for a second successive year.
Ahead of his last-four tie against Stephen Bunting tonight, here’s everything you need to know about his next match, including what time the clash starts and how to watch along on TV.
What time does Luke Littler play today?
Littler will return to the PDC World Darts Championship 2025 tonight as he faces off againstWorld No.8 Bunting for a spot in Friday’s final.
Bunting arrived at Ally Pally this year off the back of one of his best seasons as a professional and has looked impressive en route to reaching his second-ever World Championship semi-final.
Littler is once again headlining the action in the evening session and will take the stage following the conclusion of the Chris Dobey vs Michael van Gerwen match prior.
While the start time will vary depending on the duration of the previous match that evening, Littler is expected to be on stage sometime around 9:30pm GMT.
Littler will go into the match as the heavy favourite, with Bunting certain he will have to be at his very best if he is to upset the odds.
‘It doesn’t change the mindset but I would say it takes a lot of pressure off,’ Bunting said of facing the tournament favourite.
‘Obviously you can see in some of the games Luke’s played, there’s a lot of pressure on his shoulders. He’s a massive favourite to win the whole title, so he’s expected to win. Last year he maybe wasn’t expected to win,
but have a really good run, That adds a lot of pressure on his shoulders.
‘But Luke’s been absolutely fantastic. I thought he would have struggled with a lot of the big venues that we play in and he’s took to it like a duck to water, won the Premier League. Absolutely fantastic player.’
Who will Luke Littler play in the final if he beats Stephen Bunting?
Should Littler progress, then he would reach his second final in as many years and and face the winner of the aforementioned clash between Dobey and Van Gerwen.
