Brilliant from Gerwyn Price!

Sensational leg from the Ice Man! Luke Humphries hits a 180 to leave 24...

But it doesn't matter because Price goes 17, double 17, tops for 91 out.

One-leg shootout incoming...

That feels like a break of throw but it was only a hold.

Well, well, well.

We saw it in the last match and we're seeing it again. Luke Humphries misses tow darts for the match, Gerwyn Price clings on to hold and it's game on again.

Can the Welshman get the break to force a deciding leg?

Luke Humphries is on fire.

Double 12 for a 13-dart hold and he is now just a leg away from victory.

There is the key moment. As Wayne said it just felt like he was hanging on and something had to give and it has.

Another missed dart at double for Luke Humphries - double 16 for a 101 checkout.

But Gerwyn Price then misses four of them across two visits so the world number one gets another chance.

This time he finds double eight and gets the first break of the match.

Gerwyn Price is hanging on here, or it feels that way at least.

Luke Humphries hits double two to hold and level. He's had darts to win every leg so far.

He's averaging 105 and with some better finishing it would be much higher than that.

But we're still on throw and it's all square.

Another big celebration from Gerwyn Price.

It comes after Luke Humphries really puts the pressure on and misses a dart at the bull to break.

Price comes back and hits double 16 for a 13-darter.

Much more like it from Luke Humphries.

An 11-darter to level it up, a 50 out after a 180 to set it up.

There is a lot of relief for Gerwyn Price there.

Luke Humphries did a lot right in that leg but that 65 was just messy and he got punished for it.

Gerwyn Price misses tops to hold to give Luke Humphries another break opportunity.

But it all gets a bit messy from the world number one needing just 65.

Price comes back, hits double 10 and lets out a big roar. He knows that was a big hold.

No messing around this time from Luke Humphries.

When Gerwyn Price fails to take out 104, the world number one gets 52 in two darts.

Double 16 hit at the first time of asking.

Big chance for Luke Humphries to break in the opening leg but he misses two darts at double eight to break.

Gerwyn Price accepts his good fortune and hits double top for a 16-dart hold.

Gerwyn Price talking to Sky Sports about going on holiday this week: "It was nice to have a little bit of a break but the cancelled flight and extra night in a hotel room wasn't ideal! I've been home for two days though and I'm ready to go.

"It was poolside and sitting out in the sun, I've burnt all my face! I've not picked up any darts until just now when I've thrown nine or 12 darts. That is the first throw I've had in a week and it has been nice."

Luke Humphries talking to Sky Sports about facing Gerwyn Price after losing to him in the night 12 final last week: "It is one of those situations where you play each other all the time in the Premier League so you win some and you lose some. He deserved the win last week, he was really good. I was in and out of form.

"It is an important game for us both tonight. I am sitting pretty tidy in the table, but he's got a lot of work to do.

"The goal was just to get to the O2 and i'm almost there now but I'll try and push Luke Littler all the way."

World number one Luke Humphries takes on Gerwyn Price next in a repeat of last week's final.

Price came out on top in Liverpool, winning 6-4, to jump up to third in the table and boost his play-off chances.

The Welshman remains in a battle to stay there, though, with the chasing pack on his heels so a fourth nightly win would be invaluable.

Meanwhile, Humphries may be looking for his first nightly win since week four but his run to the final seven days ago all but sealed his play-off place.

The former world champion was in exquisite form in the quarters, averaging 113.5 as he beat Nathan Aspinall, but will surely be keen to turn such performances into at least one more nightly win before the O2...

The numbers were looking quite different for Nathan Aspinall at 5-1 up but all those missed doubles dragged his average down to 92.28.

Chris Dobey was at 87.43 and that is never going to be enough at this level.

Aspinall hit three 180s to Dobey's two and neither will want to see the percentages on the outer ring.

Dobey hit three of nine for 33.3%, The Asp just six of 20 for 30%. It would have looked that much healthier if that dart at bull to win on the big fish had found its mark...

It was dominant from Nathan Aspinall early on in the match but then some flakey darts. He's got the job done though.

This time Nathan Aspinall gets it over the line!

Having bossed the match for so long, seven darts for the match came and went and Chris Dobey stayed alive.

Dobey had a chance to bring it back on throw but missed tops for a 120 out and - at the eighth time of asking - Aspinall hits with a match dart.

Double six earning him two crucial points in the top-four battle.
