Luke Littler wins record SIXTH Premier League night with victory over Luke Humphries – and has more points than Man Utd

LUKE LITTLER sent out a chilling warning to his rivals with a record SIXTH Premier League night win. 

And that means he finishes the season with more points than his beloved Manchester United.

The darts world champion, 18, delivered a stunning 6-3 victory over Luke Humphries in the final in Sheffield tonight.

It was the perfect warm-up for the play-off finals for the Nuke as he aims to defend his Premier League title next week.

He smashed in outstanding 155 and 170 finishes to leave his biggest adversary floundering – prompting his favourite Big Fish celebration.

Littler also finished top of the table, smashing his own Premier League points record with a final total of 45, five ahead of his previous best.

Incredibly, that is more than Chris Dobey, Rob Cross and Stephen Bunting managed combined this year.

And his tally of 45 is six more than the 39 Ruben Amorim’s United have mustered during their dismal season.

Littler is now beyond United’s grasp as the Red Devils can only reach a maximum of 42 in the Premier League football – if they can beat Aston Villa on Sunday.

The Nuke said: “It’s been tough, it’s a tough format but I’ve got myself through as three other players have.

“But I’m very happy to be top again and break all these records again.

“Last year it worked a treat being in the first semi-final. I went on to pick up the trophy. That’s all I’m thinking about this year.

“I’m ready for the semi-final. It’s the O2, I’ve been there before and won it.”

Littler will face his bogey player Gerwyn Price in next week’s semi-final – with Humphries taking on Nathan Aspinall.
