Despite a tough draw, we don’t see it as impossible for the Philippines to advance to the weekend’s finals.

Players: Lourence Ilagan / Paolo Nebrida

The Philippines is the most exciting unseeded team in this year’s World Cup of Darts. Both players are experienced on big stages and especially enjoy being seen and heard.
The Philippines is in the tough Group B alongside Belgium and Latvia. This was definitely not an optimal draw for the players, but for the TV audience, we can promise a great show when Ilagan/Nebrida face Van Bergh/De Decker on Friday evening. We expect both teams to vary their playing pace and do everything to come out on top. It would not be surprising at all if the Philippines emerge victorious, as the level of Ilagan/Nebrida is very high.
