Luke Humphries is coming up to match Gerwyn Price now!

It's an 11-darter with 134 his lowest score prior to his 62 checkout.

What a match this has been!

It's another 12-darter for Gerwyn Price.

He's not giving Luke Humphries a sniff of a break at the moment.

Humphries even began the leg with a 180 and never got close to a dart at double.

Luke Humphries is up and running with a 13-dart hold.

That's more like it from the world champ.

He needed to be on it, though, with Gerwyn Price waiting and only needing 40.

Gerwyn Price is off to a flyer!

He hits two 180s in the leg then produces a 101 checkout.

Superb from the Welshman to take control of his match, albeit it is very early days.

Not the start that Luke Humphries - who is now guaranteed to finish second - would have wanted.

He misses two darts at double 14 for the leg and Gerwyn Price nips in, hits tops and breaks.

Luke Humphries has his new walk-on song, I Predict A Riot by Kaiser Chiefs, which he debuted last week and it goes down relatively well again here.

He must have got some stick from the Sheffield crowd, though, because he holds up his fingers to indicate 2-0 - the Leeds score against Norwich in the Championship play-off semi-final second leg (as it stands).

After a few iffy weeks, Luke Humphries looks to be getting back to his best - and at just the right time.

Following a sensational demolition of Michael Smith in the semis, Humphries beat Michael van Gerwen in a last-leg decider to triumph in Leeds - his fourth nightly win.

The world champion will be at finals night regardless but he'll want to maintain his good form.

Meanwhile, it has been a frustrating campaign for Gerwyn Price.

The Welshman went out in the quarters last week after a 6-3 loss to Van Gerwen and is seventh in the table.

A first nightly win of the season could lift him to sixth but even that would require Rob Cross falling at the first hurdle tonight.

It really was superb from Michael Smith to pull clear and win that match.

The 2023 world champion didn't hit a 180 but had 10 140-plus visits and an average of 99.27.

He was clinical on the outer ring as well, hitting six of eight for a 75% checkout percentage.

Nathan Aspinall appeared to struggle as the pressure grew but averaged 91.82 with two 180s.

He was just three of 10 on the doubles, though, and misses out on the play-offs on the final night of the league stage for the second year running.

Michael Smith talking to Sky Sports: "I'm crying more than I did when I won the Worlds. He outscored me and I wasn't playing well at all and it was just about holding throw but when that 136 went in and then the 132 and I knew that would have hurt him. I just said to myself 'kick on now' and I did.

"I wanted to do cartwheels, backflips and everything but with it being Nathan I had to keep calm and just apologise to him. I do feel sorry for him - I want him there as well as me. It was hard."

Michael Smith is going to the O2 Arena!

The match was in the balance at 3-3 then Bully Boy just turned it on.

Brilliance again from Smith in this leg with a 118 set-up, including the bull, to leave him double 12.

Nathan Aspinall had to take out the big fish to deny him and when the first dart missed the treble, he knew it was over.

Smith comes back, hits double 12 and looks very emotional as he is congratulated by his great mate.

That is how you break throw!

Special players do special things and that was special.

You could cut the tension with a knife in Sheffield!

That makes this from Michael Smith all the more incredible!

Nathan Aspinall left himself 32, Smith needed 132...

Bullseye, bullseye, double 16. In the blink of an eye and Smith is suddenly one leg from the play-offs!

That is beautiful. It is sumptuous stuff from Bully Boy.

Fantastic from Michael Smith!

He was bossing the leg and finishes it in style.

Two treble 20s and a double eight for a 136 finish that puts him two legs away from the play-offs...

You can tell how important this match is by the fact that even the crowd have gone quiet, the chanting has given way to intently watching the action.

Nathan Aspinall keeps it on throw by hitting double five to hold.

He had given Michael Smith a sniff but Bully Boy's first dart is wayward as he goes for a 140 out.

There is still nothing to choose between them.

You wouldn't know they were friends right now, would you? Where have all the niceties gone?

Time is starting to trickle away for Nathan Aspinall to find that break.

You can feel the tension on the oche and Nathan Aspinall lets out a shout of celebration after hitting a 180.

However, it is not enough given how far back he was in the leg.

Michael Smith effortlessly takes out 56 in two darts.

It's all on The Asp to find the break.

As a neutral this is what we want. Nip and tuck.
