DartStats Verdict
The most complete pairing in the draw. Littler at 99.72 and Humphries at 99.43 represent the highest combined averages of any seeded pair. England won the 2024 edition with Humphries alongside Michael Smith — with Littler now replacing Smith, they come in stronger. The only real question is whether the expectation of being top seed creates pressure in early rounds.
