The over/under on total legs is set at 31.5 and looks like an interesting bet with the under just getting the edge at 1.80 compared to the 1.90 over. Taylor is favoured to lock in the highest average with a 1.72 price ahead of the Dutch counterparts even money listing.

Should you fancy anybody to throw a perfect nine dart finish - and we’ve seen Taylor pull it off already in this tournament - you can lock in a very tidy price of 9.0. If the match is played with the type of tempo and atmosphere that we would expect from a major final like this, you can see how there is definitely a bit of value there and that Van Gerwen might have a go at it early enough to make a big statement that he can take anything that Phil Taylor can throw at him.
The bookmakers have it dead even at 1.90 for the highest check-out, there is very little between the two there and both have their individual highest check-out over/unders set at 131.5. A 1.83 price is available on either option. It is telling that Van Gerwen is favoured to notch more total 180s than Taylor and his over/under is set at 9.5 with Taylor set at 7.5.
It’s also particularly interesting that Taylor is favoured to go unde 7.5 on those 180s at 1.72 against even money on the over. Van Gerwen is favoured to go over at 1.72 while the under is an even money shot as well.
The bookmakers also favour Michael Van Gerwen to score the first 180 by a considerable margin placing him at 1.66 while Phil Taylor can be backed at evens to get that job done. The odds are identical if you are also betting in the last 180 market as well.
You can always bet that in-play wagering on the World Matchplay darts is going to be one of the more interesting ways to extract value on a match. It’s also true that when you have two genuine superstars facing off in a final, that you sometimes need to watch them a bit to see if they’re in-form before you start throwing around any serious money on the result.
