Colin Osborne vs. Robert Thornton: An Opening for Robert to Stand Firm in the Path of Victory

The Online Live League has been an interesting venture so far, with the champions competing against each other. One of the matches for the League is scheduled for 22 February 2022, in which Colin Osborne and Robert Thornton will compete. 

The Professional English darts player Colin Osborne has had some uninterrupted victories in the Online Live League this season. In November 2021, Colin won 13 games in a row before losing to Ryan Furness 4-2. After a series of interesting games that involved some great victories and some unfortunate defeats, the player is now on a winning streak with 4 recent wins by Richie Burnett 4-2, Scott Walters 4-2, Kurt Parry 4-1, and Scott Marsh 4-0. His last win was a whitewashed victory which will definitely give him the confidence to be at his finest in the coming game. The last time he lost a tournament was against Adam Smith-Neale with a very thin margin of 4-3. Colin has been an active player and has got his moves which will be of help to him throughout the League.

The Scottish dartist Robert Thornton is the 2022 World Seniors Champion. In the Online Live League, the player has been inconsistent. He built a list of straight victories over Robert Owen 4-1, Andy Jenkins 4-2, Martin Heneghan 4-2, and 4-1. Soon after, Robert had to suffer 3 successive defeats to Andy Jenkins 4-3, Robert Owen 4-2, and Graham Usher 4-0. The player avenged his last loss with a whitewashed success over Jamie Durrant 4-0. Robert didn’t have luck on his side for some time, but with such a win, he was surely giving a sign of making a comeback. Hence, Colin can expect a tough fight in the coming game.

The past performance by Colin and Robert present both as strong competitors. Robert made a great comeback in the last and would want to add another gain to the list. However, since Colin has been winning back-to-back games, he will be keen to continue his winning streak. The upcoming game can be a bit unpredictable, but the odds seem to favor Colin.
