European Championship odds

Michael van Gerwen is unsurprisingly the 6/5 favourite to claim a third successive TV title at this weekend's the Unibet European Championship.

The Dutchman has won the World Grand Prix and Champions League of Darts over the past two weeks, and will travel to Goettingen in confident mood as he targets a fifth European Championship success.

World Champion Van Gerwen is the 6/5 pre-tournament favourite with Sky Bet, while Champions League runner-up Peter Wright is 9/1 ahead of 12/1 shot Rob Cross - the 2017 finalist.

Gerwyn Price and Michael Smith, who both reached the semi-finals last weekend, are next in the running at 14/1 and 18/1 respectively while the now bald Daryl Gurney is 20/1 alongside 2016 finalist Mensur Suljovic.

James Wade is the defending champion but he's one of the outsiders at 25/1.
