LONDON – Semifinals betting odds for the 2025 PDC World Darts Championship favor top seeds Luke Littler and Michael van Gerwen to win and meet in the final. Michael van Gerwen kicks off the darts betting action on Thursday as a 2.5-set favorite against Chris Dobey.
Chris Dobey vs Michael van Gerwen Betting Odds
Player | Spread | Moneyline | Total |
---|---|---|---|
Chris Dobey | +2.5 (-145) | +200 | O9.5 (+125) |
Michael van Gerwen | -2.5 (+115) | -240 | U9.5 (-155) |
The semifinals move onto a best-of-11 sets format, but there are -155 odds favoring the under on Thursday’s 9.5-set total. These two familiar opponents have split their last six matches but van Gerwen holds a 7-5 head-to-head advantage since 2023.
The -145 odds for Dobey to cover the 2.5-set spread is our best bet of the match. Van Gerwen defeated Callan Rydz 5-3 in the quarterfinals despite having less legs won (17 vs 18), so he’ll need to be much sharper to defeat No. 15 world ranked Dobey by three sets.
Back Luke Littler To Cover -3.5 And Advance To Final
In the other semifinal darts match, Luke Littler is a 3.5-set favorite against Stephen Bunting. Littler, the strong legal sports betting favorite to win the tournament, has -450 odds to win and face van Gerwen or Dobey in the final.
Stephen Bunting vs Luke Littler Betting Odds
Player | Spread | Moneyline | Total |
---|---|---|---|
Stephen Bunting | +3.5 (-150) | +360 | O8.5 (-120) |
Luke Littler | -3.5 (+120) | -450 | U8.5 (-110) |
Their semifinals match is slightly favored to go over (-120) the 8.5-set total. Littler has the upper hand offensively on Bunting, proving so with 15 180s and a 101.54 average (3 darts) compared to two 180s and a 95.55 average in their respective 5-2 quarterfinals wins.
