The Winmau World Masters gets underway at Arena MK in Milton Keynes on Thursday as the 2026 season gathers pace. World number one Luke Littler will be looking to add a Masters win to his CV, while Luke Humphries, second in the world rankings, will be looking to bounce back from a disappointing performance in the Saudi Arabia Darts Masters by retaining his title. However, the top two may not have it all their own way as they will have in-form Michael van Gerwen to contend with, along with players with a point to prove like Danny Noppert and Nathan Aspinall. And we have compiled some great outright betting tips for the tournament.

PDC World Masters Darts Tips 2026
Our darts experts have been keeping a close eye on the early season action and have been monitoring the top players over the last year. Taking this into account, along with historical data over the years, they have come up with some great outright bets for the tournament from the best darts betting sites in the UK.
Littler and Humphries are the Two Favourites
Given the high standards that the two Lukes regularly hit, it is no surprise that the tournament favourites are Littler and Humphries in that order. If you want to wager on either of the pair to win, that is great, we can see your logic. Out of the pair, the odds on Humphries are better value. He may have had a disappointing PDC World Championship and he may have underwhelmed in Bahrain and Saudi Arabia. But overall, his numbers are much closer to Littler’s than the odds suggest.
In-form Van Gerwen a Great Value Bet
Michael Van Gerwen has bounced back after an early exit in the PDC World Championships. Van Gerwen won the Bahrain Darts Masters and finished runner-up to Littler at the Saudi Arabia Darts Masters. He is a five-time winner of the Masters and finished runner-up as recently as 2024. We think that 18/1 at BoyleSports is great value and if you don’t want to back him to win then an each-way punt is worthwhile.
INFO
Each-Way betting in darts is two places, meaning that your bet will pay out at ½ odds if they make the final.
Danny Noppert: Dutchman A Great Each-Way Bet at 25/1
Danny Noppert is a man with a point to prove after being left out of the 2026 Premier League Darts. Many felt that the Dutchman, who got as high as 6th in the World Rankings last year, would come into 2026 with all guns blazing. That hasn’t quite been the case so far, but it is still early in the season and Noppert performed well at this tournament last year, losing to Humphries, the eventual champion, in the semi-final. We think he will make a strong challenge and see him as a great value outside bet.
Nathan Aspinall: Another Great Each-Way Option after Strong Start to 2026
Nathan Aspinall is another top player who could feel aggrieved after being left out of the Premier League Darts. Aspinall has reacted by reaching the semi-finals in both Bahrain and Saudi Arabia. He is definitely one to watch here, and we are tipping him to be there or thereabouts. At 40/1 with BoyleSports, he is worth an each-way bet or a wager on him to make the semi-finals.
