Despite his outstanding win at the Alexandra Palace, Wright is lodged as second favourite to take the title at ArenaMK, with world number one Michael van Gerwen remaining the heavy favourite. 'Mighty Mike' has been crowed the Masters champion on the last five occasions getting his year off the perfect start and he is priced at EVENS to repeat the feat in 2020.
Wright will be looking to carry the momentum forward from London into the first event of the year, and should he stick with his brand new shiny darts he will surely be the biggest threat to van Gerwen's crown. The bookies have priced the Scotsman at a heavy 6/1 to take the title, with him being in the opposite side of the draw to van Gerwen.
If like me you're a fan of an outsider, Nathan Aspinall is your man! 'The Asp' won the UK Open title and US Darts Masters in 2019 as well making the World Championship semi-finals in the previous two years. The Stockport thrower is now up to 8th in the rankings, and a win in MK would mean a top six spot may be on the cards, he is priced at a mammoth 22/1 for his third television title.
