European Tour 3- Belgium Darts Open Day 3 Picks 2026 (Sunday 22nd March)

The two Sessions at the Belgium Darts Open see the completion of this latest European Tour event and the second of those is where the Quarter Finals, Semi Finals and Final are all played.

During the Day Session, Luke Littler was beaten and that is going to mean the remaining eight players are filled with extra confidence that they can go on and win the title here.

Niels Zonneveld over 2.5 180s & Danny Noppert over 1.5 180s: The big test for Niels Zonneveld is going to be backing up the upset over Luke Littler from earlier in the day.

He played really well in that Third Round match and has come through a couple of final Leg deciders and Niels Zonneveld has been hitting the maximums for fun.

Danny Noppert is also a big maximum hitter and backing the two players to hit a number of those looks the right way to take this Quarter Final on board.

Jonny Clayton to win & over 2.5 180s v Andy Baetens: The home crowd will be firmly behind Andy Baetens who has had a very strong weekend with upsets loaded up.

He will be looking for another against a Premier League opponent in this Quarter Final having already beaten Stephen Bunting, but Jonny Clayton continues to produce quality darts every time he steps to the oche.

Losing early on Night 7 of the Premier League has not dented the confidence of the leader in the standings, and Jonny Clayton can find a way to get past the home player.

Jonny Clayton can hit plenty of maximums when he gets into a groove and this could be a match that goes nine or more Legs, which should give the Welshman a chance to get up to three maximums hit.

Luke Humphries to win & both over 1.5 180s v Chris Dobey: There are no outright markets set until the Third Round is complete, but Luke Humphries has to feel a big opportunity has opened up to win this title.

Criticism from social media has clearly bothered Luke Humphries this weekend, but he has used that to fuel him and the World Number 2 continues to produce quality darts.

He needs to back those up with doubling to win a big title, but he can get the better of Chris Dobey in what should be a big hitting Quarter Final.

The former Premier League contender is fighting to get back amongst the elite and Chris Dobey can be very strong on his day- he hits plenty of 180s, but he may not have the consistency to keep up with Luke Humphries and the latter can earn a spot in the Semi Final later in the day.

European Tour 3- Belgium Darts Open Day 2 Picks 2026 (Saturday 21st March)

The Belgium Darts Open continues on Saturday with the entirety of the Second Round played across two Sessions and the big names have now entered the tournament.

After issues crossing the border, some of those names have been complaining about getting to European events and the Tour could suffer if top players decide it is more hassle than it is worth.

It is unlikely with the prize money on offer, but there have been frustrations on social media and you would hope that those can be channeled in a positive way.

The opening day of the European Tour 3 event went as well as hoped with both selections returning winners, but it is a long weekend and Saturday is looking a busier day.

Hopefully there is some momentum behind the selections after a decent Night 7 at the Premier League too, but nothing can be taken for granted.

Martin Schindler v William O'Connor: There are better displays to come from Martin Schindler who has been struggling for consistency in the first three months of the 2026 season.

He would have been incredibly disappointed to have been dumped out in the Second Round in Germany last week, but Schindler is a solid competitor on the European Tour and can make amends in Belgium.

William O'Connor was a comfortable First Round winner on Friday, but had lost five of the previous seven matches played.

This will be close considering the recent level of Martin Schindler, but the expectation is that he can dig in and produce an important win.

Damon Heta to win & over 1.5 180s v Daryl Gurney: We know how good Damon Heta can be, but he has had a rough few months on the Tour.

His run to the European Tour 2 Semi Final last weekend will have given Heta a boost and especially as he came through a very competitive Quarter Final against a home player.

Scoring is going to be key to make sure the Australian remains in front of Daryl Gurney who has picked up enough wins to still be full of belief, even without a noted deep run at a recent tournament.

Crushing Ian White 6-1 in the First Round will give Daryl Gurney plenty of confidence, but Damon Heta beat him twice on the floor last season and can use that performance in Germany to spark another solid run.

Danny Noppert to win & both players over 1.5 180s v Luke Woodhouse: He may have been far from his best in beating Ricky Evans last week, but Danny Noppert reminded everyone of the consistently strong level being produced week to week when coming up short against Gerwyn Price.

A win over Luke Humphries has already been secured and the Dutchman is one of those players who will feel aggrieved about missing out on the Premier League, but who is more than capable to be invited into that tournament in 2027.

You have to expect Danny Noppert to be tested by Luke Woodhouse, but the latter has not really kicked on as hoped.

Both are solid maximum hitters- Luke Woodhouse had four in his 6-1 loss to Chris Dobey last week- but the edge is with Danny Noppert who has won seven of the last eight matches against this opponent.

Nathan Aspinall to win & most 180s v Ryan Joyce: One of the players that were complaining about the time it was taking to get through passport control ahead of the Belgium Darts Open was Nathan Aspinall and he will be keen to have a strong impact at the tournament to make it worth his while.

The Asp is unfortunate to not be playing in the Premier League this season, but results over the last month have not been the best.

Some of the draws have been unkind to him, but Aspinall will not be looking to make excuses in Belgium.

He is most definitely the heavier scorer compared with Ryan Joyce, but the latter is very dangerous with his doubling and so it should be a competitive match.

However, Ryan Joyce has really been struggling with his form over the last several weeks and he was beaten twice by Nathan Aspinall in 2025.

Maximum hitting is a strength for Aspinall and he can use that power scoring to ensure he has enough cracks at a double to edge past Relentless.

Luke Humphries to win & most 180s v Dirk van Duijvenbode: This should be a maximum filled contest when two of the most prolific 180 hitters on the Tour face one another in the Second Round.

Another Semi Final defeat at the Premier League means Luke Humphries continues to struggle to find the consistency he is expecting from himself, but the performances remain at a very good level.

Scoring has been much improved with his new flights, but doubling continues to be an issue and Humphries will have to clear that up in this Second Round match.

In a lot of situations, his scoring will allow him to pull clear and get through Legs, but that is not going to be the case against Dirk van Duijvenbode if the Dutchman is near his best.

The latter played well in Germany last weekend and has added a First Round win here, but Dirk van Duijvenbode can sometimes feel the pressure when being hit with the scoring power that someone like Luke Humphries can provide.

He remains dangerous and the maximum hitting power can blow away this selection, but the expectation is that Luke Humphries wins and his own power hitting has been evident in 2026.

Josh Rock to win & most 180s Kim Huybrechts: For the second time in three nights, Josh Rock is going to have to expect the crowd are going to be heavily in support of his opponent.

The Premier League nightmare continued in Dublin when Rock was blown away by Gerwyn Price, but the crowd did him no favours.

At least Josh Rock can say he has been producing much better darts outside of the Premier League setting and he may be able to edge past home favourite Kim Huybrechts in this Second Round match to conclude the days play.

He has dropped down to World Number 61 after a difficult time on the Tour, but Kim Huybrechts has put some decent form on the board in recent weeks.

The Belgian averaged over 100 in beating Nico Springer in the First Round and that will have given him a huge boost in confidence, but this may be a step too far right now for Kim Huybrechts and Josh Rock can use some superior scoring to edge through to Sunday.

European Tour 3- Belgium Darts Open Day 1 Picks 2026 (Friday 20th March)

A remarkable night in Dublin ended with Luke Littler closing the gap on Jonny Clayton in the Premier League standings, but Gerwyn Price and Michael van Gerwen will both be wondering how they failed to beat the World Number 1.

Once again, it is a reminder that Littler feels like he is clear of the rest of the Tour and that the mental pressure of facing him is beginning to ramp up, much as it did in the past when players moved into position to beat the likes of Phil Taylor and van Gerwen.

Missing darts built up the sense of dread that the top player on the Tour would punish them and Luke Littler has done that enough in his relatively short time as a professional to have built that aura around him.

He will be playing at European Tour 3 this weekend and the Belgium Darts Open features the majority of the top names, although Price, Gian van Veen and Gary Anderson have withdrawn.

It is a big event for players looking to build up some confidence or build on the momentum that has been picked up ahead of the next set of Players Championship tournaments later in the month.

These European Tour events are the big titles to be won over the coming weeks and months until the World Cup of Darts is played on the same weekend as the Football World Cup begins. In that time there are plenty of Players Championship events to be played as well alongside the Premier League and it remains a busy time for the players and fans of the sport.

Last weekend was a difficult one for the Darts Picks at European Tour 2, but this is an opportunity to bounce back.

Day 1 features the entirety of the First Round being played across two Sessions, while the top Seeds join the party on Saturday with the Second Round split over two Sessions.

The selections from Night 7 at the Premier League at least got things moving back in a positive direction, but it is important to build on that in the Belgium Darts Open to keep things ticking over.

Ricky Evans to win & over 1.5 180s v Scott Williams: At his best, Scott Williams can be a very dangerous player, but the price has shortened on Ricky Evans to come through this good looking First Round match.

Both have been putting together inconsistent results over the last few weeks, but there has perhaps been one or two more flashes from Rapid Ricky.

He will need his scoring and Evans has always been a decent maximum hitter, but it is doubles that win matches and that cost him last weekend in the loss to Danny Noppert.

Scott Williams has lost four of his last five matches and has just been having his issues of late, but he did earn his spot in Belgium through the Qualifiers and beat some solid competition in his run.

So did Ricky Evans though and his numbers have been a little stronger to believe he can edge to the win with a couple of maximums thrown in too.

Dave Chisnall to win & over 1.5 180s v Thibault Tricole: The form over the last several months has been disappointing as far as Dave Chisnall is concerned, but he can find a way to get past an improving Thibault Tricole.

One of his wins to earn a Qualifying spot at the Belgium Darts Open was against Ricky Evans and he had a very strong run at Players Championship 6 when reaching the Semi Final.

That means Thibault Tricole has to be respected, but Dave Chisnall has beaten him once this season and usually enjoys taking part in these European Tour events.

There is a pressure on Chizzy to find some wins to avoid dropping too far in the World Rankings and having to eventually take part in the cutthroat business of Qualifying, but there is still some good darts being played.

Doing it for long enough, even in this short format, has been the problem for Dave Chisnall, but he may just have enough here to edge past a quality First Round opponent.

Scoring is going to be key and Chisnall can put together a couple of maximums during a match that should last at least nine Legs.
