Check out the 2025 World Darts Championship odds where the two from the 2024 final Luke Humphries and Luke Littler currently lead the betting.

Luke Humphries The 2025 World Darts Championship Favourite

It’s fair to say that Luke Humphries has been the best darts player in the world over the past few months, winning four of the last five major titles on offer.

He took his career to new heights when beating teenage sensation Luke Littler in the 2024 World Darts Championship at the start of January, coming from 4-2 down to win 7-4. Humphries claimed the £500,000 prize after recording five consecutive sets to win his biggest trophy yet.

The 28-year-old was the pre-tournament favourite heading into his first game a couple of weeks ago, and he justified that by making all to win his 19th competitive contest in a row. Humphries’ net worth took another huge step forward too, and he now leads the ranking for money won in the PDC Order of Merit.

And following his success, he has opened up as the 7/2 tournament favourite once again with BetMGM, 11 months out from the Alexandra Palace renewal.

LUKE HUMPHRIES IS WORLD CHAMPION! 🏆

Teenage Star Luke Littler Opens As Second-Favourite

After his fairytale run to this year’s final when narrowly missing out in defeat to Humphries, Littler has opened up as the tournament’s second-favourite with a just under 12 months until it kicks off.

The 16-year-old defied all odds when making it to the final, becoming the youngest to ever do so in the process. However, it was not to be on the night after he missed a dart at double 2 to go 5-2 up in a clutch part of the match.

Littler was on a 112 finish and he got his first dart in treble 18, and was looking for a single 18 to follow up, but ended up hitting the treble again.

This meant he would need double two on his last dart to go into a three-set lead, but he missed and it changed the complexion of the contest completely. He didn’t win another set after that, as Humphries won five in a row to complete an almighty comeback.

The best UK Betting Apps have priced Littler as a general 9/2 shot, so see the full 2025 World Darts Championship odds below.
