Utterly sensational from Luke Littler.

He leaves 140 and it has to go with Michael Smith needing just 40.

Littler opts to go treble 18, treble 18 and double 18 and nails it.

There's a little point to the camera.

Michael Smith has a sniff.

Luke Littler is down at 84 but misses two darts at double.

Smith needs 126 but finds outer bull rather than bullseye and that allows Littler to come back and mop up.

Luke Littler suffers a bounce-out and that allows Michael Smith to open up a sizeable lead. He does suffer from those quite a lot, Littler.

Smith takes out double tops with Littler back on 239. Clinical.

Luke Littler has thrown a 180 in every leg so far.

He's down at 95 after nine darts and again finishes on double tops for a 12-dart leg.

Littler has been very, very good so far.

It's a brilliant start from Luke Littler and not too shabby from Michael Smith either.

Luke Littler gets one dart at bullseye for a break but misses.

Michael Smith cleans up with double tops to keep us on throw.

Both players are averaging in excess of 100 already.

Luke Littler is just different, isn't he? He opts to go double-bullseye to leave 111.

It's a bit scrappy though and he can only get that down to 68.

He ends up setting up double tops and sinks his only dart at it.

Does Luke Littler ever not have the darts? That's an incredible position to be in.

He opens with a 180. Obviously.

Luke Littler has looked pretty relaxed in the past couple of weeks. He's been singing along and revving up the crowd during his walk on but there isn't really any of that tonight. There's a little head nod along but that's it.

The crowd are, perhaps surprisingly, more into Michael Smith's song choice. It's Bully Boy's usual Shut Up and Dance by Walk The Moon. It is a tune to be fair.

This match should be a cracker. There will be plenty of pace and high-scoring should be a guarantee.

Our final quarter-final of the evening sees teenage sensation Luke "The Nuke" Littler come up against Michael "Bully Boy" Smith.

Littler rose to prominence with a run to the PDC World Championship final on debut over Christmas and the New Year and since then has won the Bahrain Masters and a Players Championship event in Wigan.

It has been a solid start to the Premier League, but he's yet to win a night. He was a beaten finalist in week two in Berlin and made the semi-finals in week one and four.

Smith, who was world champion in 2023, won the opening night in Cardiff but has suffered quarter-final defeats in the past two weeks.

The pair faced each other in the semi-finals on night one in Cardiff with Smith winning 6-5.

Rob Cross averaged 109.69 in that one-sided game. That is his highest average in a Premier League match.

He was also six from 10 on the doubles, which allowed Gerwyn Price practically no opportunities in the match.

Price pushed his average up to 90.73 by the end, but only had five scores above 140 and no maximums. Cross had nine and three respectively.

With 161 needed Rob Cross is able to set up with Gerwyn Price not on a finish.

He leaves 32 and although he misses two darts at double, and has to readjust his position on the oche, he threads it through for double 16 and the win.

What a performance from Cross. He was simply outstanding.

Superb from Gerwyn Price.

He checks out 160 to keep himself in the game.

That is, remarkably, Price's highest score of the match.

It is just a hold though. Rob Cross will throw for the spot in the semi-finals.

This is as good as Rob Cross can be. What a performance.

On paper, Gerwyn Price was favourite.

Boos for Rob Cross.

He leaves 170 and finds the two treble 20s required. He then opts to split though rather than going for the bull.

Gerwyn Price isn't on a finish and Cross comes back to clean up for a 5-0 lead.

Five perfect darts from Rob Cross to start the fourth leg. He's on it. Both have been against the throw too. He is putting an immense amount of pressure on Gerwyn Price.

A 10-dart leg, sealed with his favourite double 18, seals the fourth leg for Voltage.

Gerwyn Price's throw has been called "lacklustre at best" by Wayne Mardle on Sky Sports. There's a purse of the lips from Price too. He knows he's been miles off it in the opening two legs.

Both players get themselves down to 132 and both nail the first bullseye. Cross can find the second too, and then nails double 16, for a brilliant finish.

A perfect six darts to start from Rob Cross.

Can he do the nine-darter?

The seventh dart keeps the dream alive, but he misses treble 16 next. There's a little shake of the head.

He leaves eight and ends up taking out double two for an early break.

For Gerwyn Price, it's a bit like Luke Humphries - the performances have been there but winning has been difficult because Michael van Gerwen has been winning every week... but not this week!

A steady start from both in terms of scoring.

Rob Cross leaves 46 and takes out double 16 with his second dart for a 17-dart leg to get us going.
