Rock will look to grab a win in his first career PL match.
He'll play Wales' Jonny Clayton, whom he beat last year at the 2025 World Cup.
Quarterfinal 2: Luke Littler vs. Gian van Veen
Winner: Luke Littler, 6-4
Van Veen is coming off an incredible year, and he's practically been able to beat anyone recently, except for Littler.
It'll be an exciting match to watch in week #1, but until Littler shows any signs of slowing down, I think he'll continue to beat van Veen.
Quarterfinal 3: Luke Humphries vs. Gerwyn Price
Winner: Luke Humphries, 6-5
Humphries has been in great form over the last few weeks, especially at the World Masters.
He's appeared to tweak a couple of things with his game, and it has worked well so far.
Price is also in solid form after an early exit at the WC, but Humphries should have the edge if he continues to maintain his recent form.
Quarterfinal 4: Stephen Bunting vs Michael van Gerwen
Winner: Stephen Bunting, 6-4
Bunting has heard all of the criticism a player can get, so he'll have a chip on his shoulder this PL campaign, after a rough return to the PL in 2025.
He should have a great shot at starting the 2026 PL with a win, as MVG's form has been inconsistent over the past 12 months.
Littler and Rock could face each other for the second time in less than a week.
It didn't go well for Rock at the World Masters, and although I see him playing better in this potential clash, Littler should be able to keep his undefeated record against Rock alive.
Semifinals 2: Luke Humphries vs. Stephen Bunting
Winner: Luke Humphries, 6-2
If Humphries can get past the tough task of Price in the quarterfinals, he should have no problem with Bunting, unless 'The Bullet' produces something special.
Final: Luke Littler vs. Luke Humphries
Winner: Luke Humphries, 6-5
It seems like a boring prediction, but I don't see how there isn't a Luke/Luke final this week.
They both were incredible at the World Masters, and as of now, I feel like Price is the only player who can create chaos in this format.
I do have Humphries getting over the hump this time around, as he could have a chance at revenge after losing to Littler in the World Masters Final on Sunday.

Three storylines to watch during Night 1
Here are the main storylines to look out for on Night 1.
Luke Littler vs. Gian van Veen WC rematch
We've seen the two play since Littler destroyed van Veen in the 2026 WC final, but this feels like a more anticipated match with it being van Veen's first PL match, as well as the fact that it's in a packed arena.
Will there be a Luke vs. Luke final?
Littler and Humphries are on a collision course to meet in the final, but will they be able to overcome their difficult Night 1 quarterfinal opponents?
Can Stephen Bunting flip the script?
Bunting has a lot of work to do to get back on track after a rough past 12 months.
Luke Humphries wins another set, tying the match at 3-3 against Luke Littler. He regains the momentum, as he'll be on throw to start set #7 in session #3.
