2025 European Darts GP R1 Preview

James Punt has already posted an outright preview and tips for this event, see them here. Check out his 2025 European Darts GP R1 betting preview below.

Ritchie Edhouse vs. Connor Scutt

The Bank of Edhouse has been closed for business recently. Edhouse has lost five of his last six matches and even on his beloved Euro Tour, his form has deserted him. He has lost his last two first round matches, averaging a shade under 85 in both. Overall, he has lost five of his last six matches and hit just one 90+ average.

Scutt has only played in one Euro Tour event in 2025 and lost his first round match 5-6 to Gian van Veen. Scutt’s most recent form sees six wins from his last ten matches. He has been a bit unlucky to have faced good players playing well and his own performances have been good.

Edhouse is the European Champion and while he has never won a Euro Tour event, he has had a few decent runs. Scutt, on the other hand, has never won a single match. He has played six and lost six. However, he is an improving player and he has a great chance to break his duck today.

Luke Woodhouse vs. Johan Engstrom

Engstrom has played nine first round matches on the Euro Tour and he usually gives a pretty good account of himself. He has only won two, but he has managed to win four or more legs six times.

Woodhouse has played in all five Euro Tour events in 2025 and of his five first round matches, four were over 9.5 legs. He has lost five of his last ten matches and he has been off the boil somewhat.

Jermaine Wattimena vs. Daniel Klose

Klose has played six Euro Tour first round matches and lost all six. He did make the third round once, in last year’s Austrian Darts Open, but he was a late replacement and got a bye into the second round and he beat Andrew Gilding. However, he has lost all his first round matches and lost five of them 3-6.
