2025 German Darts Grand Prix: Day 2 Betting Tips

• Damon Heta Most 180s: 1/1 at William Hill

Damon Heta has been his usual consistent self on the PDC Tour and picked up his first title of the season on Monday at PC13. Four quarter-finals in all competitions so far this year is solid form, and he comes into this weekend high on confidence.

Ryan Joyce had a fabulous run to the final of the European Darts Trophy in March, eventually losing out to Nathan Aspinall 8-4 in the final. That's his only good run of note, however, and he's failed to progress past the last 16 in any other event this season.

Damon Heta is one of the most prolific maximum hitters on tour, and I'm surprised to see his price for most 180s here. It offers fantastic value, especially as Joyce hit just ten in six matches during his run to the final of Euro Tour 2 and hit only one in his victory yesterday.

• Cameron Menzies To Win: 6/5 at Spreadex

Ryan Searle has struggled for consistency this season, but did pick up a title early in the year at PC04 IN February. He hasn't looked his usual self since his 10-0 whitewash defeat against Luke Humphries at the UK Open. Since that match, he's made it to just one quarter-final, which isn't good enough for a player of his ability.

Cameron Menzies continues to impress, and after picking up his second PDC title at PC11, he has decided to quit work and concentrate on Darts full-time. It seems the obvious choice, especially after how he has played so far this season. The Scotsman has a 72% win rate in 2025 and a running average of 94.85. A quarter-final and a last 16 in the last two European Tour events prove how dangerous he has become.

Ryan Searle did win the pairs-only encounter this year in the final of PC04 in February, but Menzies looks a much better player now and is arguably one of the best players in the World coming into Munich this weekend.

• Mickey Mansell To Win: 5/4 at Ladbrokes

Joe Cullen looked back to his best at the start of the season after a run to the final of PC01 and then winning PC05 in March. Since then, he's been really poor and hasn't progressed further than the last 32 in any ranking event. The Rockstar was whitewashed 6-0 by Ryan Joyce in his opening game at Euro Tour 2 and averaged just 81.41. He followed that up with another defeat in Euro Tour 3 against Nathan Aspinall 6-1, averaging just 80.11. These are worrying signs again for Cullen, and he needs to improve quickly to avoid defeat here.

Mickey Mansell averaged 87.98 in his 6-4 victory over Ritchie Edhouse. Yesterday's performance was very solid and exactly what you'd expect from him. The Northern Irishman is 4-3 up in head-to-heads against Cullen and can take advantage of the inconsistent Englishman here.

• Michael Smith To Win: 5/6 at Spreadex

Michael Smith is beginning to show signs of a return to form and comes to Munich with two semi-final runs in his last six PDC events. He also had a quarter-final run in the UK Open in March and has a running average of 94.94 in 2025.

Krzysztof Ratajski battled well yesterday to come through a last-leg decider 6-5 against Mensur Suljovic, averaging 96.70. That was a big win for the Polish Eagle after losing seven of his last eight games on tour.

Michael Smith looks like he's starting to find his rhythm again, and if that continues, he'll push back up the rankings quickly. Ratajski has been completely out of form before his win yesterday, and Smith looks the more confident coming into today, and I expect him to have too much here.

• Niels Zonneveled Most 180s: 10/11 at Betfred

James Wade comes into this tournament on the back of a quarter-final run on Tuesday in PC14. He's had a fairly consistent season and had a run to the semi-final at the Belgian Darts Open. The Machine also had a fabulous run to the final of the UK Open, and it's clear he still remains extremely dangerous on the big stage.

Niels Zonneveld continued his great form after a 6-3 victory over Daryl Gurney yesterday, averaging 95.61 and six maximums.

Wade has never been the biggest 180 hitter, and the price for Zonneveld most 180s looks like great value, especially after hitting six in the first round.

• Mike De Decker To Win: 4/5 at William Hill

Peter Wright's form has been hit and miss again in 2025, but when he's playing well, he still looks able to compete with the sport's elite. Snakebite has continually stated he isn't finished yet, and after a final, two quarter-finals, and a semi-final so far this year, he sounds right. Unfortunately, though, results in between have been poor, and he comes into Munich this weekend after back-to-back first-round exits at PC13 and PC14 earlier in the week.

Mike De Decker looks to have recovered well after the disappointment of missing out on Premier League selection. He made it to the final of the Belgian Darts Open in front of his home crowd in March and has had two semi-final runs since then. The Belgian beat Johan Engstrom 6-3 yesterday with a 91.25 average, but I expect him to play much better tonight.

Peter Wright leads the head-to-head 6-3 between these two, but the Belgian has beaten Snakebite in their last three meetings. Two of those have come this year, and the last was a 6-4 victory in the European Darts Trophy at the end of March.
