That fills us with confidence for this week, with a lot of players coming to Wigan in decent form.<\/p>\n<p>Some players are fighting for their spot in the Players Championship Finals with just four PDC ProTour events before then. Littler is one of those, who will need to play well this week and next if he is to make it to the Finals, as is Michael van Gerwen.<\/p>\n<p>With 128 players in action and this being a non-TV event, plenty of lesser players will fancy their chances of success at Robin Park Leisure Centre for Players Championship 31.<\/p>\n<p>Below we have selected four names at differing prices who we think could be in with a chance of winning Players Championship 31 come the end of the day. They are as follows:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Josh Rock @ 14\/1<\/li>\n<li>Gian van Veen @ 16\/1<\/li>\n<li>Ryan Searle @ 33\/1<\/li>\n<li>Scott Williams @ 125\/1<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>When Is Players Championship 31?<\/h2>\n<p>Players Championship 31 takes place at the Robin Park Leisure Centre in Wigan on Tuesday 14th October.<\/p>\n<p>Play is set to begin at 1.00pm BST, with 128 players in the full Players Championship 31 field.<\/p>\n<p>The event is a straight knockout tournament, with each match a race to six legs.
