Humphries v Price
Mark Webster
Former BDO world champion on Sky SportsIt is tough for Luke Humphries - he is the world number one and when he doesn't perform in two or three weeks we jump all over him.
He didn't enjoy the conditions last week, like Gerwyn Price, and both kind of threw in the towel a little bit. They haven't done that tonight, they've let their darts do the talking and been focussed.
Humphries was really fluent in the quarter-finals and then there were a few mistakes from Michael van Gerwen in the semi-finals that he jumped all over.
He's been back to his best.

Humphries v Price
Mark Webster
Former BDO world champion on Sky SportsGerwyn Price has come here and let his darts doing the talking. It has been two big displays and he's edging closer and closer to the play-offs.
He got a little bit disgruntled with the Premier League last year, missing chances, but he's taking his opportunities now and he's probably not a million miles off now.
He will run Luke Humphries all the way.

BBC Sport at M&S Bank Arena, LiverpoolA journalist has to protect his sauces, right?
Josh Cresswell, 19, from Liverpool, is here in fancy dress with three friends for a night of arrers action.
“We are supposed to be a Full English breakfast but we’re minus the toast,” he says.
“I love everything about the darts - the game, the atmosphere, it brings everyone together.”
On Luke Littler, he says: "We appreciate him as a player but you don't expect the crowd in Liverpool to back him."

Result: Cross 2-6 Price
Comprehensive from Gerwyn Price.
He averaged an impressive 105.27, hit the only 180 of the match and found the mark with 46.2% of his darts at double.
A match to forget for Rob Cross with his average down at a mere 86.51. He was 66.7% on the outer ring but his lacklustre scoring meant he comes from only three darts.

The Welshman looks in the mood tonight. A second impressive showing to oust Rob Cross.
Seven semi-finals, seven defeats for Cross in the Premier League this year.

Stuart Pyke
Commentator on Sky SportsRealistically you felt like Rob Cross needed to get to the final here, and arguably win, to stay in contention for the play-offs.
It feels like there is far too much for him to do now.

It's not over just yet.
Rob Cross takes out 76 for a 15-dart hold.
Now to get that break. Then hold. Then get another break.

Cross 1-5 Price
One more leg will do it for Gerwyn Price.
Double 18 gives him a 12-darter with Rob Cross all the way back on 304.
That just about sums up this semi-final so far.

Cross 1-4 Price
This semi-final is getting away from Rob Cross.
He has double 16 for a 104 out and needs it with Gerwyn Price waiting on 54... but he can't get it.
Price needs just two darts for his 54. He's two legs from the final.

Cross 0-2 Price
Image source, PA MediaA comfortable enough hold for Gerwyn Price.
He has another couple of misses on the outer ring but with Rob Cross yet to get started, they don't prove costly.
Double 10 gives him a two-leg buffer.
