Van Gerwen 2-2 Van Barneveld
Michael van Gerwen responds well and despite a couple of late missteps, adjusts calmly to plant his dart into the middle of the bed of double nine.
All square.
Van Gerwen 1-2 Van Barneveld

A 13-dart hold. Van Barneveld is firmly in this match much earlier than he was against Rob Cross.
Van Gerwen 1-2 Van Barneveld
Close! Raymond van Barneveld misses double 16 for a 131 checkout but Michael van Gerwen can't take out 132.
Barney comes back to hold. He's right in this match.
Van Gerwen 1-1 Van Barneveld

Van Barneveld is living a very charmed life in this tournament so far. We're still wondering how he beat Rob Cross.
Van Gerwen 1-1 Van Barneveld
Slightly lax from Michael van Gerwen having got himself into a commanding position in the leg.
Six sloppy darts leave him without a shot at a double and Raymond van Barneveld sneaks in to draw level.
Van Gerwen 1-0 Van Barneveld
Image source, Kelly Deckers/PDCA slow start from Raymond van Barneveld.
But not from Michael van Gerwen. His first 180 of the night leaves him needing just 24.
Double 12 is hit at the first attempt. A 13-dart leg and an early break for MVG.
Van Gerwen 0-0 Van Barneveld
Chris Mason
Former World Championship quarter-finalist on ITV
There's always a special feeling around this match.
Van Gerwen 0-0 Van Barneveld
Raymond van Barneveld, in a black snood, will throw first.
He starts with 60, MVG is straight in with 140.

VoiceOfTheMysterons: There's clearly got to be a drop-off at *some* point, but as long as Littler keeps playing like this, he's going to be extremely difficult to beat in first to six, or even first to ten, legs.
Van Gerwen v Van Barneveld
Image source, Kelly Deckers/PDCHuge cheers as Raymond van Barneveld is announced as you'd expect in the Netherlands. Plus the usual chants of 'Barney Army'!
His familiar walk-on song of Eye of the Tiger plays. An easy one for the crowd to get into!
Speaking of which, here comes Michael van Gerwen to Seven Nation Army...

Van Gerwen and Van Barneveld have brought eyes to our sport that we might not have had. I think it's their 60th meeting tonight.
Barney has a win over him just last year.
Van Gerwen v Van Barneveld
That's the top half of the draw sorted.
It's double Dutch in the next two quarter-finals and next up is the glamour tie: it's Michael van Gerwen v Raymond van Barneveld.
Just the eight world titles between them.
Price 6-3 Doets
Gerwyn Price makes no mistake on the double and sets up another meeting with Luke Littler in the semi-finals. What a match that will be.
Price hit eight perfect darts in the match and was centimetres away from a nine-darter.
Can he avenge his loss to Littler in Bahrain last week?

Darts commentator on ITV
I thought it was going in, the crowd thought it, I think we all did.
Price 5-3 Doets
SO CLOSE TO A NINE DARTER!
Gerwyn Price misses double 12 for a perfect leg.
He breaks straight back and is within one leg of the semi-finals.
Price 4-3 Doets
Kevin Doets hits a 180 and Gerwyn Price follows in his example.
Price misses a chance to checkout on 60 and Doets hits double 10 to pull a leg back.
A missed chance for Price there, you feel 5-2 may have been too much for Doets to come back from.
Price 4-2 Doets
Image source, Kelly Deckers/PDCGerwyn Price has a bit of breathing space now after taking out double top on the second time of asking.
Three legs on the spin for Price now.
Stuart Pyke
Darts commentator on ITV
That's a great leg, a great recovery from Gerwyn Price.
Price 3-2 Doets
It's tense on that stage, both men know they can win this.
One shot at double seven is all Gerwyn Price needs to take the lead again after a poor start to the leg.
Littler 6-5 Humphries
Image source, Kelly Deckers/PDCLuke Littler, speaking to ITV: "Happy with the way I played. I went 2-0 up then I think I fell asleep for the next four legs.
"But I think I played well the whole game, my finishing and my scoring so I'm happy.
"I was just thinking I've got the darts and I can bring it back. I did and I won."
