The ‘Darts From Home’ match, which is a best of seven legs, sees the two former Premier League stars play each other on the interactive Target Nexus dartboard.
The boards allows the players to see each other, speak to each other and play each other from their own homes – meaning the match can happen in complete isolation, during lockdown.

Former England left-back Bridge said: “I don’t know if Jamie will get through the match – he’s nicknamed ‘Breakable’ for a reason. Hopefully, the match will go the distance and we can raise a load of cash for charity.”
Our own oche jockey Paddy Power said: “There’s a sports-shaped hole in everyone’s life right now, and we’re here to fill that with Darts From Home.
“Simply put, a totally interactive Target Darts match which abides by the laws of lockdown, since the players aren’t ever in the same place.
