Michael van Gerwen is the 2018 Unibet Premier League Darts Champion!

The Dutch superstar produced his best performance of the entire tournament to land his third Premier League crown in a row.

van Gerwen's 11-4 win against Michael Smith was nothing short of perfection, as he thrashed 'Bully Boy', who just couldn't live with the world number one.

In a blink of an eye Michael van Gerwen has produced an absolute masterclass in the Premier League Darts final.

van Gerwen has averaged over 120 in the first half of the match, and leads Smith 7-1.

Phenomenal darts from the Green Machine!!

What a performance from Michael Smith!

The 'Bully Boy' defeats his good friend and mentor Gary Anderson 10-6 at London's O2 Arena to book a place in the final, where he will face Michael van Gerwen, who beat Rob Cross earlier in the evening.

Smith will head in as underdog, but he will gain huge encouragement from that Anderson victory.

Final to come......

Michael Smith keeps his nose in front as the players head into the break.

Smith leads 6-4, but Gary Anderson will walk off the stage ruing a host of missed doubles.

If he can iron out his finishing problems then Anderson still has a huge chance to face van Gerwen in the final.

Great match!

It's another quickfire clash unfolding at the O2 Arena, and it's advantage Michael Smith in the early stages of his match with Gary Anderson.

The 'Bully Boy' has shown very few nerves in his first appearance in Finals Night, and he leads the 'Flying Scotsman' 4-3.

This could go all the way.....

With van Gerwen safely in the final, we now turn our attentions to the second match of the night and it's Michael Smith who is first on stage.

He is then followed by Gary Anderson, and the good friends embrace in front of a huge crowd.

This should be another stunning semi-final.

Game On!

Michael van Gerwen has booked his place in tonight's Premier League Darts final with a 10-6 win over Rob Cross.

In front from the off, van Gerwen dominated world champion Cross for most of the match, and never looked in danger.

He will now sit back and watch Michael Smith and Gary Anderson do battle for the honour to play MvG in the final

Delightful darts from the reigning champion.

A rapid pace is being set at the O2 and van Gerwen is already 7-3 in front as they head into the interval.

Cross is not happy with his performance at all, but van Gerwen is not letting up and is trying to get the job done early.

Michael van Gerwen has rocketed out of the traps and has blown Rob Cross away in the first part of their semi-final at the 02.

van Gerwen has broken Cross in two legs already, and the Dutch dynamo has propelled into a 5-1 lead.

Cross is just unable to deal with the reigning champion, who could have this one sewn up fairly quickly.

A raucous crowd has welcomed the players on to the stage for the first semi-final of the Premier League darts, and what a first eliminator we have.

In a repeat of the World Championship semi-final we have Michael van Gerwen facing Rob Cross.

Game On!

A monster crowed will pack into London's O2 Arena this evening for the 2018 Unibet Premier League Darts Finals Night.

Michael van Gerwen is the reigning champion, but he will have to down Rob Cross in the semi-finals, while the other last-four match will see Gary Anderson and Michael Smith lock horns in the capital.

Only can prevail, and it's set to be an epic night of darts.
