Robert Thornton vs Michael Warburton Prediction: Will Thornton put an end to his winless streak?

This edition's Modus Super Series features a third meeting between Robert Thornton and Michael Warburton. Michael Warburton had the upper hand in the first two contests. Will Robert Thornton be able to change this situation, though?

Robert Thornton is coming off a setback to Jeremy Fagg in his most recent encounter, and the Scottish darts player will be hoping to avoid another defeat in this match. Robert Thornton has defeated John Desreumaux twice, Sven Verdonck twice, and Mark Barilli in recent matches. While this contest will be a major concern for him because of his four losses to Michael Warburton, we expect Robert Thornton to be at his best and strongest going into this matchup as he seeks his first victory over Warburton.

Michael Warburton will enter this clash full of confidence, hoping to give his all and secure a win once more. Michael Warburton has won each of his past five matches, with only one loss in his last nine meetings with Jeremy Fagg. However, because Robert Thornton is a known opponent, Michael Warburton is well aware of his talent. Despite this, the Welsh darts player is likely to exploit Thornton's weakness and make it five wins in a row over the Scottish.

This is shaping up to be a tough matchup, with both players displaying great levels of character. However, Thornton will be favored to win here because he has yet to defeat Warburton, which we are convinced he will do. Also, a 4-1 victory for the Scots appears to be a nice one.
