Kevin Painter vs Robert Thornton Prediction: Thornton to take advantage of Painter

In the Modus Super Series this week, Kevin Painter is set to face Robert Thorꦿnton in the upcoming action. K🗹evin Painter enters the match as the underdog, with Robert Thornton being the favored player.

Kevin Painter is currently facing a challenging streak with six consecutive defeats, and he aims to reverse the trend in this upcoming match. His recent losses include encounters against John Henderson, Robert Thornton, Neil Duff, Mark Dudbridge, Steve Brown, and Jim McEwan. Notably, Painter's last defeat was against Jim McEwan in a close 3-2 match. Despite being the underdog once again, Kevin Painter is determined to turn things around and secure a victory in this upcoming match.

Robert Thornton is the favored contender in this match, and the Scottish darts player is optimistic about securing another victory. In his recent matches, Thornton emerged victorious in four, including notable wins against Steve Brown, Mark Dudbridge, and Kevin Painter. However, it's worth noting that he did suffer a defeat to Jim McEwan in a recent match that concluded with a score of 3-1. Despite this setback, Thornton has a successful track record against Kevin Painter in their recent meetings, and he is anticipated to deliver a high-level performance in this encounter as well.

It seems unlikely that Painter will succeed given his current weak form. However, the motivation frꦆom previous losses may push him to perform at his best, adding an element of uncertainty. Despite this, it remains challenging to have full confidence in Painter. Consequently, my backing is for Robert Thornton to secure the victory, 🍸considering Painter's struggles to close the odds.
