This is a straight knockout competition and there are 32 players entered into the tournament, so it is all set to be a superb week or so and the atmosphere will be electric.
Premier League Champion Michael van Gerwen is being tipped as the slight favourite to win the World Matchplay as he is being offered at 11/4. The Dutchman has shown just how good he is over the last year or so and it will be interesting to see how he copes with being favourite.
With the way van Gerwen has gone about his game so far though, he is sure to relish being the front-runner. He takes on Colin Lloyd in the first round and it is the perfect chance for him to build some momentum.
Phil Taylor can be backed at 3/1 here and it won’t come as much of a surprise that he has the best record in this tournament.
Taylor is the current holder and gets his tournament underway with a match against Stuart Kellett.
Although he has nothing to prove in the game, The Power might not like being second favourite and could see this tournament as a chance to show he is still the best around.
Adrian Lewis will be an interesting contender for the World Matchplay as no one can doubt he has a lot of quality, but he didn’t play well in the Premier League.
Lewis needs to turn his form around here and we have seen that when at his best, he is more than capable of challenge for the big titles in darts. His latest odds see him at 8/1 and he could prove to be a popular bet.
Raymond van Barneveld can be backed at 16/1 and although his best days might be behind him, you can’t ever write the Dutchman off.
Van Barneveld is often popular with the crowd and if he gets some momentum going in the tournament, he could be a surprise package.
James Wade is also at 16/1 and after being a runner-up here on more than one occasion, he will be looking to go one better. Wade has the knowhow to reach the latter stages.
Others that could be involved include Simon Whitlock at 22/1, Robert Thornton at 28/1 and Andy Hamilton at 33/1. These three might not have the quality to win the tournament if the big guns are involved, but there is always the chance of a few shocks.
We should be in for a cracking tournament here and it will be great to see the best players in the world locking horns.
There are a number of names involved that not many would have heard of and they will see this as there time to shine.
The first match gets underway at 7.10pm on Saturday evening.
