The 2024 PDC Grand Slam of Darts will see the final four spots in the quarter-finals announced following Mickey Mansell, Cameron Menzies, Martin Lukeman, and Rob Cross booked their place on Wednesday night.

This week’s tournament in Wolverhampton is wide open due to shock exits from the top stars in the group, particularly defending champion Luke Humphries and former multiple-time winner Michael van Gerwen.

Jermaine Wattimena vs Dimitri Van den Bergh

It’s no secret that Jermaine Wattimena will be bursting with confidence after a recent run in the European Championships saw him reach his first televised ranking final, with the Dutchman continuing his impressive form to progress through in his group.

However, playing Dimitri Van den Bergh is no easy task, but these two will know each other’s strengths and weaknesses due to sharing the same management stable.

Gary Anderson vs Stephen Bunting

Arguably the game of the night concludes this evening’s order of play, with two-time PDC champion Gary Anderson taking on Stephen Bunting. Both players complied together incredible averages in the group stages with the expectation to follow later tonight.

Bunting will be there to try and spoil the night, but the St Helens star will be looking to build on his first TV win earlier this year at the Masters and double his TV tournament tally.
