WES NEWTON and Richie Burnett will clash in a tasty first round tie at the Gibraltar Darts Trophy on Friday, while Michael van Gerwen has recovered from an ankle injury to take his place in the European Tour event in Gibraltar.
The £100,000 tournament will kick off at the Victoria Stadium on Friday as the tournament's 32 qualifiers meet in one bumper session of darts.
PDC world number six James Wade, one of the 20 UK Qualifiers, will take Gino Vos in the first round, with the Dutch youngster being one of the eight European Qualifiers who earned their spot in the event on Thursday night.
High profile clashes include Wes Newton's meeting with Richie Burnett and the clash between Michael Smith and Andy Smith - with the winner of that contest progressing to face 2013 Gibraltar Darts Trophy winner Phil Taylor in Saturday's second round.
Vincent van der Voort, last weekend's Austrian Darts Open winner, won his spot in the event with a comeback defeat of Joey Ten Berge in an all-Dutch clash in the European Qualifier and now takes on Kevin Painter in a tasty first round duel.
World Champion Michael van Gerwen has recovered sufficiently from the ankle injury which forced him to miss last weekend's Austrian Darts Open to take his place in the field in Gibraltar, and he will take on the winner of a first round game between Spain's Antonio Alcinas and Holland's Benito van de Pas.
At least one of the four Host Nation Qualifiers from Gibraltar will progress to the second round after World Cup representative Dyson Parody and Henry Zapata were drawn to meet each other, with the other two home hopes, policeman Antony Lopez and labourer Manuel Vilerio taking on Daryl Gurney and Dean Winstanley respectively.
Tickets for the Gibraltar Darts Trophy are available on the day at the Victoria Stadium, with coverage of the tournament to be streamed worldwide through the websites listed at the foot of this page.
