Hogsback's Tips

8th November 2025
13:15 Damon Heta vs Martin Lukeman

Martin Lukeman

Win Match 2-way

50 WIN

Damon Heta has really struggled for any sort of form recently. He is certainly not a match favourite to put much faith in. Martin Lukeman has hovered around the lower rankings but must have a chance based on Heta's poor form.
13:45 Damon Heta vs Martin Lukeman

Martin Lukeman 1.50

Handicap 2-way

50 WIN

It is a small start in favor of Martin Lukeman, but he has a good history in this competition. Damon Heta is ripe for an opening match upset.
14:45 Gerwyn Price vs Ricky Evans

Ricky Evans

Win Match 2-way

50 WIN

In this very short format of first to five legs, it will be quickfire. The fastest starter will be in the box seat, so favorites in the majority of cases are of little value. Rapid Ricky Evans can go well. At the odds, there is every chance Evans will prevail.

Ricky Evans 2.50

Handicap 2-way

50 WIN

Ricky Evans at plus 2.5 legs start is a saver if things don't go in his favor. Just three legs more for Evans would see this bet get over the line.
15:15 James Wade vs Stefan Bellmont

Stefan Bellmont

Most 180s

50 WIN

This could take off for Stefan Bellmont. The Swiss has hit a nine-darter before. He could be worth a look here, even if James Wade wins with ease. Bellmont's chances of 180s will increase if he is further back in legs.

Over 2.50

Total 180s

50 WIN

If this 180 battle ends up not as a draw, it could well be worth going over the spread. Stefan Bellmont generally gets a 180 and James Wade is odds on to get more.
16:45 Gian van Veen vs Lisa Ashton

Gian van Veen

Win Match 2-way

50 WIN

Gian van Veen should have too much scoring power for Lisa Ashton to compete. The Dutchman is riding on the crest of a wave at the present time.

Gian van Veen

Most 180s

50 WIN

Gian van Veen will definitely outscore Lisa Ashton in terms of 180s. He is building a formidable reputation in the game.
20:15 Nathan Aspinall vs Michael Smith

Michael Smith

Most 180s

50 WIN

Michael Smith was always known as a high 180 scorer. He has lost form massively but must still have heavy scoring in him. Nathan Aspinall hits plenty too. Smith needs to play well, and then he can score big numbers.
21:15 Luke Humphries vs Alex Spellman

Luke Humphries

Win Match 2-way

50 WIN

It would be a major surprise should Alex Spellman beat Luke Humphries, even over the shortest of formats. Humphries usually at least goes far into tournaments.
21:45 Luke Littler vs Karel Sedlacek

Luke Littler

Win Match 2-way

50 WIN

Very few favorites are worth taking in the Grand Slam Group Stage, but Luke Littler probably is. A sluggish start would be a worry. Littler has the game to beat anyone.
22:15 Michael van Gerwen vs Beau Greaves

Draw

Most 180s

50 WIN

This match appears to be close in terms of statistical 180s. Beau Greaves has been a decent maximum hitter. Michael van Gerwen should be a 180s match to Greaves.
