PDC World Championship 2026 Tips

Luke Littler is the defending champion, and last year he beat Michael van Gerwen in the final. The last two years he has reached the final, and I am tipping The Nuke will believe he owns the Alexandra Palace stage. Littler has one world title, and my tip is he claims number two at the PDC World Championship 2026.

Having had a decent run in this year's World Championships and showing glimpses of his best form, I think 7.5/1 looks a great price for MVG for the 2026 World Championship. Depending on how the year goes, it could be a massive price come December. I'm playing this one EW with the hope he makes the final.

The Iceman won the World Championship in 2021, beating Gary Anderson in the final. He has reached the quarter-finals in three of the four years since. Gezzy has won other major events like the Grand Slam and the World Grand Prix. The way he played in the Premier League and is back enjoying his darts this past season, I am tipping Gerwyn Price will go all the way to the final of the 2026 World Championship.

The Flying Scotsman did win on the Players Championship and European Tour circuits in 2025, and I do think he has one more run in the World Championship at the Alexandra Palace. Gary Anderson is a two-time world champion back in 2015 and 2016, and he was the runner-up as recent as 2021. I think the Scot will want to put last year's early exit to bed, and I do think Anderson can get to another world final.

A very outside pick, but Woodhouse has only been improving the last few years and shown he can mix it on the big stage with the big boys. I think this is the year he finally gets a title under his belt. With a good 2025, I think he could go deep in the 2026 Worlds.
