Stephen Bunting vs Luke Littler: Betting preview
Peter Bunting overcame two-time champion Peter Wright 5-2 on New Year's Day. He stormed into a 4-0 lead before Snakebite mounted a mini recovery, sealing the match with a 95.55 3-dart average and 43.34% checkout success rate. It's the first time 'The Bullet' has reached the last four since 2021, where he was beaten by eventual winner Gerwyn Price. In earlier rounds, Bunting just lost two sets - he beat Kai Gotthard 3-1, Madars Razma 4-1 and whitewashed Luke Woodhouse 4-0. In those matches, he averaged 92, 100 and 96 respectively.
Luke Littler has progressed through to the PDC World Championship semi-finals with a 5-2 victory over Nathan Aspinall. The 17-year-old averaged 101.54, hit 15 maximums and 45% on the doubles. Prior to that, the Nuke hadn't been at his sparkling best so far despite averaging over 100+ twice and dropping just five sets. His route to the last eight wasn’t quite as convincing as many thought, only securing a narrow 4-3 win over Ryan Joyce on Monday. Anywa, the win over Aspinall guaranteed the teenager £100,000 in prize money and sees him reach the last four for a second consecutive year after he lost at the hands of Luke Humphries twelve months ago.
Luke Littler and Stephen Bunting are 1-1 in the Head-to-Head. Both meetings have been played at the Players Championship. Last September Littler won 8-7, while Bunting got his revenge a month later with 7-6 victory over the 17-year-old.
Stephen Bunting vs Luke Littler: Best odds
The following are the highest prices on the Stephen Bunting vs Luke Littler match at time of writing.
Stephen Bunting vs Luke Littler: Predictions
Littler looked himself again in his routine victory over Aspinall, and this is a bad news for Bunting. The Nuke has played in five major semi-finals this year and won all of them, raising his game with every round.
Stephen Bunting has been clinical and cheerful so far, but he lacks a few of Littler’s higher gears.
We believe the teenager sensation will reach the World Championships final for the second consecutive year, but the contest will be closer than the best betting sites expect.
As a result, we back Luke Littler to win 6-3 in the Correct Score market and Stephen Bunting +3.5 sets in the Handicap betting market.
