England Ready For World Cup Opener

Diamond Draws Competitions

Top seeds England will kick off their the BetVictor World Cup of Darts campaign against Spain on Saturday evening. Luke Littler and Luke Humphries lock horns with Cristo Reyes and Jose Justicia in Frankfurt.

Reyes averaged 104 to inspire Spain to a comprehensive 4-1 victory over Japan in their winner-takes-all Group K clash, having also edged past Croatia yesterday.

The Lukes will have to be aware of the threat posed by the talented Spanish pairing both of whom are in fine form and who have had two games to find their rhythm.

Both Lukes have commented on the need to learn from last year and expressed their readiness for the occasion:

“Me and Luke, we’re up for it,” insisted the World Champion Littler.

Following Saturday’s action, the quarter-finals, semi-finals and final will take place during a bumper double session on Sunday, as the remaining eight nations go head-to-head for World Cup glory.

The 2026 BetVictor World Cup of Darts is being broadcast on Sky Sports for viewers in the UK & Ireland, through the PDC’s international broadcast partners, including DAZN and Viaplay, and on PDCTV for Rest of the World Subscribers.
