Here are my predictions for a stacked slate on Night 12.
*Semifinals and final listed below are my predictions based on the quarterfinals
Price is coming off a title at the European Darts Grand Prix from this past weekend.
GVV has struggled to play well in the last month of PL matches. He hasn't held a play-off spot since the end of Night 6.
He certainly has the skillset to beat Price, but he won't have a shot at winning if he produces the type of performance we've seen out of him in recent weeks.
Clayton has been the man to beat in recent weeks, rebounding well after a three-week dry spell from Night 7 to Night 9.
Bunting has won two of his last three quarterfinal matches, and with the Liverpool crowd behind him, we could see him take what feels like a must-win game regarding keeping his play-off hopes alive.

Rock has won his last four quarterfinal matches after losing the first seven of the 2026 PL season.
MVG has either been the runner-up or a quarterfinal loser in the last four weeks, so there's some uncertainty about what to expect from him entering this match.
This feels like a 50/50 match, but I like Rock's chances, as he's been very consistent in the quarterfinals over the last three weeks.
Littler has averaged over 99 just once over his last six PL matches, dating back to Night 9.
This has come after a stretch where he averaged over 105 in 7 of his previous 10 matches.
