Shocks And Surprises Predicted For The World Darts Matchplay 

1) THAT'S NEVER GONNA HAPPEN. 2) THERE'S NO CHANCE. That's all I have to say.

ThaTs NEveR goNnA haPPeN!1!!11!!!1!

People should respect your opinion. Last year you predicted Andrew gilding for the uk open lol

Noppert Clayton Schindler Rock 4-Fold. Had Gurney & Joyce as 1st round surprises..

Not often Van Gerwen not favored in a 1st round match

I would love to see Ryan Searle make a run of it

One certainty is the fans will be fitshaced with back to back sessions and the football. I predict a riot

I can see Jonny Clayton doing some damage if he is on form and Ryan Searle too

Watch out for those splinters on that fence Matt :)

Good job you didn't have a bet on your first round predictions Matt lol

Everyone loves a mass debate

It's Humphries to lose i think meeting Cross in final. Format being legs not sets suits em both perfectly.

Maybe I see that only because i am german, but atm Schindler plays lile a top 16 guy minimum many 100+ avr i hope he comes far

Littler to pick up the title is at least 50/50 every tournament he joins. I think Anderson could well trip him up though!

I am from the future and edhouse won the matchplay

Clayton to win it!

After the draw drew up a chart and ended up with Bunting v Gurney and Dolan v Anderson semi finals and a Bunting v Anderson final with Bunting winning! 70% heart and 30% brain used lol.

I think the standard is so ridiculously high that it becomes almost impossible to predict. Andrew Gilding was unknown until he won the Open, Humphries became the World Champion then had a horrendous spell, MVG is allegedly the goat but he has been stuck on the farm for two years, 16 year olds without pubic hair beating the best 7 in the world.... Experience tells us that either Price, Anderson or Wright should win, but where have they been? Price had a 12-month average of over 99 last season - just shy of Anderson this year, but has gone off the boil. Too many inconsistencies at the top of the table to make accurate predictions. But in all honesty, I don't have favourites. Doesn't matter if 127th in the world or 1st in the table hits a 9 darter or a big fish, it's all exciting as hell to watch!

It's a shame that Ricky Evans isn't playing he would have brought some fun and entertainment to the tournament

I think the main goal from MVG is to beat Littler in that first game. After that, nothing else matters, he will go home happy even if he loses in the second round.

MVG has been out of form this year but we all know he can still turn up at any given time and hit one of his crazy averages and beat anyone. No guarantee Littler wins that but if he does then he will likely get to the semis or final.

Rock v Anderson final as Rock has been bang on form for last 3 months winning a European title along the way and Anderson has been very good for the last 12-18 months and I think this is the tournament he has a good run. As for the winner between rock and Anderson I’m going to say ando to win it and it’ll be his last major that he wins

Ryan Searle to beat Cross

I think chizzy could take littler. Which would blow it wide open. Anderson Humphries final.

I have Josh rock as my dark horse. Been very good this year on euro tours and pro tours as well as the World Cup. Also, his side is open as Price and Noppert are in bad form and I think Woodhouse will beat Aspinall so it’s completely open for him to have a run to the semis

I think that whenever you say understated, you probably mean underrated :) Just a minor thing, enjoyed the video as always!

The mad house is coming, I’ve stopped betting against him as he produces upset after upset

Johnny Clayton Bang in form. I'm not betting on Ryan in case I hex his chances.. Would love to see Heavy Metal go all the way..

Rob cross

I dont think your far off. I think youve called the final right tho.

Well you said it. You could be genius with Gurney or be a numpty head if he loses first round 10-3 to Price.😅

Matt Im off to the matchplay with 7 mates of mine, and we all have different outcomes for the day I think mvg will beat littler am hoping Anderson beats bully boy as he's my favourite of all time but Ryan Searle could have a great run this year I think

James wade I think

Can't argue much about your choice there mate. Totally agree about Gurney!

Matt you doing a live every day cant wait for saturday up littler for the title

My predictions: Round 1: Luke Humphries 10-5 Ricardo Pietreczko Stephen Bunting 10-2 Ryan Joyce Jonny Clayton 9-10 Raymond van Barneveld Dimitri van den Bergh 10-6 Martin Schindler Gerwyn Price 10-5 Daryl Gurney Ross Smith 5-10 Josh Rock Nathan Aspinall 10-7 Luke Woodhouse Danny Noppert 9-10 James Wade Michael van Gerwen 4-10 Luke Littler Joe Cullen 10-6 Brendan Dolan Dave Chisnall 7-10 Krzysztof Ratajski Peter Wright 2-10 Andrew Gilding Michael Smith 10-8 Gary Anderson Chris Dobey 9-10 Ritchie Edhouse Rob Cross 10-4 Gian van Veen Damon Heta 10-7 Ryan Searle 2nd Round: Humphries 11-5 Bunting Barneveld 11-9 van den Bergh Price 9-11 Rock Aspinall 11-10 Wade Littler 11-2 Cullen Ratajski 11-4 Gilding Smith 9-11 Edhouse Cross 11-6 Heta Quarter Finals: Barneveld 16-13 Humphries Rock 16-10 Aspinall Ratajski 16-15 Littler Cross 16-7 Edhouse Semi Finals: Barneveld 17-12 Rock Ratajski 17-16 Cross Finals: Barneveld 18-17 Ratajski

Gimme a Clayton/Anderson final.

congratulations on the 50K Matt, remember when it was under 5K :) i agree, Littler to win!

Oh dear…😂

Josh Rock was bang on in the World Cup, carried Dolan there. He might get on a run here. I think Littler will play his game again even after that poor display in the floor games.

You’ve given Gurney a semi, Anderson a semi…. 😳 I’m hoping/expecting to see Ando and Chizzy do well but that bottom half is stacked.

Josh rock each way Rob cross each way

Dmitri record in blackpool is amazing, he makes the QF imo Price out of form is a myth, but regardless it's josh rock who makes the SF Woodhouse makes the QF Dobey makes the QF where he loses to Cross, though I can see Dobey making the SF as well After all the entertainment in the world though, we'll still end up with a luke v luke final where humphries comes out on top

Searle to beat bunting in final

Wouldn’t think either Searl or Heta liked the draw this year but I will say with out Any factuals I feel who ever wins will go deep

Would love to have a go at this Matt, how did you do these brackets? Surprised you have Gurney going so far, I like it

Odds on mvg's pants falling down he always pulls his socks up

I’m sort of new to darts, does the winner of the matchplay get a free ticket to the PL next year

Matt, was so on your side especially with Gurney. Then you went Searle 😳😳😳 to coin an Aussie phrase, tell him he's dreaming. Heta all the way mate. 😁😁👍👍🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺👍👍👍

I think i will go with the 2 Luke's in the final but not sure about the rest of them...lol

I think Michael Smith will be back firing on all cylinders especially after he and Luke Humphries won the team title and yes MVG is on holiday but it's always a danger to right him out of any tournament because let's be honest he could turn up hit stupid high scoring averages and win the whole damn thing.

Cross goes to at least semis imo

I just get a feeling MVG is going to turn up & roll back the years against Littler But then totally becomes disinterested again against Dolan in the next round

No seeing it with Gurney, definitely think price wins against him not troubled

What do you think about the Women? Noa Vanlynn +1400

MVG v Littler Monday 20. 50.....MVG 6/4 Littler 8/13....Will be a close one.

All 4 Dutchies losing first round? I sure hope not 😵

What program are you using may I ask?

Gurney? Wow! Quite bold! I'm taking Edhouse and Heta in the other 1st round match-ups. I don't know if Gurney gets past Rock even if he does beat Gerwyn. Interesting picks! Looking forward to the reaction videos!

Humphries Joyce Clayton Schindler Price Rock Aspinal Noppert Littler Dolan Chisnall Wright Smith Dobey Cross Searle

I think you’ve got Aspinall all wrong. No offence sorry Matt but I don’t think Woodhouse has enough to beat Nathan. He’s the reigning champion and I think he’ll go on a big run again here. Sorry but I disagree with that

Nobbert. Will beat Wade.

Luke Littler didn't play well in the pro tour.

Mr. Social Media for Mission darts doesn't want us to put reaction comments in the chat? SMH. Bruh, you absolutely want people to flame in the comments. It's called engagement.

I think Dimi is gonna dance :(.. when Dimi plays, i try to skip the walk on and then i'm on his side. When i see his slow walk on and dance I tend to root for the opponent (and i'm belgian :d )

first round Humphries-Pikachu 10-4 Bunting-Joyce 10-7 Clayton-Barneyarmy 10-7 Dimi-Schindler 12-10 Price-Gurney 10-6 Smith-Rock 8-10 Aspinal-Woodhouse 11-9 Noppert-Wade 10-7 Mvg-Littler 10-8 Cullen-Dolan 10-7 Chizzy-Ratajski 10-5 Wright-Gilding 10-7 Smith-Gary 10-8 Dobey-Edhouse 10-8 Cross- Van veen 10-6 Heta-Searle 7-10 Second round Humphries-Bunting 11-7 Clayton-Dimi 11-8 Price-Rock 11-13 Aspinal-Noppert 7-11 Mvg-Cullen 11-5 Chizzy-Wright 9-11 Gary-Dobey 11-6 Cross-Searle 11-8 Cuarter finals Humphries-Clayton 14-16 Rock-Noppert 13-16 Mvg-Wright 16-10 Gary-Cross 16-12 Semi finals Clayton-Noppert 17-13 Mvg-Gary 14-17 Final Clayton-Gary 13-18

Gezzz bud I watch your vids so I can get information to form an opinion later wen I have some facts 😂 love a debate wen based on facts

Halfway through the Littler match and the results and performances give a strong indication that EdgarTV doesn't know much worth anything regarding top level darts.

Humphries beats Pietreczko Bunting beats Joyce Clayton beats Barney Schindler beats Dimi Gurney beats Price R. Smith beats Rock (narrowly, whoever wins reaches the semis) Woodhouse beats Aspinall Noppert beats Wade (I don't agree with you here. Noppert has been fantastic this year) Littler beats MVG Dolan beats Cullen Chizzy beats Ratajski Wright beats Gilding Anderson beats M. Smith Dobey beats Edhouse Cross beats Van Veen Searle beats Heta Humphries beats Bunting Clayton beats Schindler R. Smith beats Gurney Noppert beats Woodhouse Littler beats Dolan Chizzy beats Wright Anderson beats Dobey Cross beats Searle Humphries beats Clayton R. Smith beats Noppert Littler beats Chizzy Cross beats Anderson Humphries beats R. Smith Cross beats Littler Cross beats Humphries to win the Matchplay Cross has been in terrific form for a while now. I think he finally takes a major again

Littler batters mvg imo

MVG is going to win Mystic Mat

Agreed, Dolan is just so consistent. Shame he‘ll either face MvG or Littler. Maybe he‘s even hoping for MvG in that one😅

Gary Anderson all the way

If these results are correct I'll win 6k off a quid 🤞

I think MVG will beat littler.

I think Humphries beats Pikachu Bunting beats Joyce Clayton beats Barney Schindler beats Dimi Price beats Gurney 11-9 R Smith beats Rock (Smith more than 5 180s) Aspinall beats Woodhouse Noppert beats Wade Littler beats MVG (both average under a ton tho) Dolan beats Cullen Chisnall beats Ratajski Wright beats Gilding (both average under 95) Anderson beats M Smith Dobey beats Edhouse Cross beats Van Veen comfortably Heta beats Searle Humphries beats Bunting Clayton beats Schindler R Smith beats Price Noppert beats Aspinall Littler beats Dolan Chisnall beats Wright Dobey beats Anderson Cross beats Heta Humphries beats Clayton R Smith beats Noppert Littler beats Chisnall Cross beats Dobey (again, sorry Hollywoood) Humphries beats R Smith Littler beats Cross Humphries beats Littler

Nah this is horrendous

Luke to loose to mvg the lose to Brendan

Gurney is not beating price Price will trash him 10-5

Mvg will get himself worked up over Luke with a 110 avg then loose if not Luke will win the lot

I think you've read the MVG situation wrong Matt. A fully refreshed and relaxed MVG beats Littler.

A lot of 50/50 games. I don’t understand the Gurney run. His results aren’t that special this year. Only 500 pounds above Price in the OoM of 2024. I don’t see the Wade run happen either. Lucky he has qualified and i guess that will show in his display at the Matchplay. i think Noppert as former UK open winner is more underrated then former World Grandprix runners-up Dolan. Both really consistent trough the years, but Noppert a stable factor into the top 16 without seriously getting mentioned. His World Championship results might have something to do with it. I see him reach the semi-finals again. Woodhouse has come from behind a lot of games this year, to win it in a decider. I don’t think that against the best players in the world he will get away with it in the Matchplay. So Aspinall wins that first round, to suffer defeat in the second round against Noppert.

MGV all day long …..

Matt, you keep saying that - but it's not true. It's not the top 16 of the two-year ranking against the top 16 of the one-year ranking. Only 6 of the unseeded players are in the top 16 of the one-year ranking and not a single one is in the top 5 of the one-year ranking. I understand why people sometimes simplify things, but here I wonder if you think the majority of us don't understand the qualifying concept. Because: you just can't say it like that, rather that the unseeded are the best of the rest based on a one-year ranking. The way you keep saying it makes it sound like the unseeded players are the ones who are in better form.

Your predictions sucks😂

It appears those I follow get to 100k , free Tshirt wen u get there 🫣😉
