Nathan Aspinall picked up a maiden Premier League nightly win for 2025 with a 6-4 victory over Luke Humphries in the final on Night 10 in Manchester.
With Man Utd legend Wayne Rooney watching on in the crowd, United fan Aspinall made home advantage count, with the fans on his side as he wrapped up a win that leapfrogs him into the Play-Off places and adds some vital points for his campaign to be in the top four come Finals Night.
The victory for Aspinall is his first of the season after falling short in finals on Night Three in Dublin and Night Five in Brighton.
It means he is now into fourth place in the table, level on 15 points with Michael van Gerwen but ahead due to his nightly win.

Nathan Aspinall did not miss a dart at a finish during his quarter-final win over Rob Cross
In the final, Humphries started in brutal form to canter into a 3-0 lead, but Aspinall stayed strong and finally hit back with the fans right on his side to bring the encounter to 4-3 in his favour, a clutch D18 then 66 checkout on D16 to get on top.
Averaging over 107, Aspinall was just one leg away before Humphries hit back again to bring the score to 5-4, but that only delayed the inevitable as the Stockport man fired in back-to-back 180s then finally pinned D4 with his sixth match dart to prevail.
