The Premier League of Darts heads to Leeds this week for Night 14.

It's Luke Humphries' home week, and playing in Leeds could be what propels Humphries towards the play-off seeding with just a few weeks left.

Night 14 match predictions

Here are my predictions for a stacked slate on Night 14.

*Semifinals and final listed below are my predictions based on the quarterfinals

Quarterfinal #1: Gerwyn Price vs. Jonny Clayton

Winner: Gerwyn Price, 6-4 

Clayton has been far more consistent in the PL over the last month, but there's a lot more on the line for Price in the last few weeks.

Price is still five points clear of a play-off spot, but he'll need to grab a couple of wins in the last few weeks to avoid dropping out of the top-4.

Quarterfinal #2: Luke Littler vs. Michael van Gerwen

Winner: Luke Littler, 6-3

Although Littler has already clinched a play-off spot, he'll have some work to do if he wants to stay at the top of the table.

MVG has shown he's in solid form recently, but it's tough to tell what version of himself will show up each week.

Littler's recent form has been reliable enough to indicate a win is the most likely outcome for him in this 2025 WC final rematch.

Quarterfinal #3: Josh Rock vs. Luke Humphries

Winner: Luke Humphries, 6-3

Humphries will have the crowd behind him this year, and historically, it's paid off very well for him when he's in Leeds.

He's won the night final there the last two years, and a win this week could make it a third straight year.

Quarterfinal #4: Gian van Veen vs. Stephen Bunting

Winner: Gian van Veen, 6-2

Bunting's play-off odds have dropped quite a bit over the last few weeks, as he stands seven points out of a play-off spot entering Night 14.

GVV, on the other hand, is still very well in the mix, trailing MVG by two points for fourth on the table.

Bunting has the longest losing streak in the PL at the moment, losing his last three quarterfinals. GVV has made it past the quarterfinal round in each of the last two weeks.

Since GVV's surgery, his production level has been erratic, but he seems to be putting together some solid form as we enter a vital stretch of the 2026 PL season.

Semifinal #1: Gerwyn Price vs. Luke Littler

Winner: Gerwyn Price, 6-5

This would be the seventh time Littler and Price play in the PL this year, and Littler has already won the previous six matches.

The streak will have to end eventually, though, especially with Price being one of the few players to consistently give Littler close matches when they play.

Semifinal #2: Luke Humphries vs. Gian van Veen

Winner: Luke Humphries, 6-4

A Humphries/Van Veen semifinal seems the most likely scenario, and it could be a determining factor in which player can make a push for the play-off.

At most, one of these players will make the play-off night, so they'll have to make sure they take away points from the other player, while also extending their own point total.

Final: Gerwyn Price vs. Luke Humphries

Winner: Gerwyn Price, 6-4

As desperate as Humphries is to get a night win this year, it's going to be a tough task, as Price already has two wins himself.

If Price can get through Littler and Clayton, the two best players so far in the PL this season, I don't see why he wouldn't be able to get by a shaky version of Humphries in the final.

Three storylines to watch during Night 14

Here are the main storylines to look out for on Night 14.

Can Humphries win on 'home soil'?

Humphries will have the crowd behind him, and a run to the final feels like a must for 'Cool Hand' at this point in the PL season.

Can Bunting end losing streak?

Bunting will have to grab at least two points this week to give him a shot at making the play-off night.

Can Price get back on track?

Price won his quarterfinal clash last week, but his form has been a little subpar over the last month.
