John Part has 6/1 treble for Thursday's Premier League Darts plus predictions for five matches including Gary Anderson v Michael van Gerwen.
Michael Smith is on a great roll and on top of the table while Mensur is in the quite opposition situation. It's interesting though because Mensur beat Michael in the Masters just before the Premier League season started and he generally has a better head-to-head record.
So there's conflicting information to take in - but I'm going with the most recent information.
Because on current form Michael Smith is hot - he won one of the UK Open qualifiers and did pretty well in the rest whereas Mensur's absence from these six events to concentrate on the Premier League has backfired somewhat. He's not getting any practice of winning matches. Instead, the only thing he's done in two weeks is lose matches.
You need to keep your confidence high and have the consistent feeling of hitting match winning doubles, so the situation he finds himself in he may regret not playing at least one of these weekends.
I'm going to back Michael at 11/8 but also take the Price Boosted treble for him to win by also hitting most 180s and have the highest checkout at 9/2.

I think MVG will bounce back - he was a little off at times against Peter but the 170 checkout also shows us he wasn't all that bad!
Gary still has some question marks in his head over his fitness and although he did win a tournament at the weekend, I'm not sure those kind of floor tournaments help a man of his experience so much. He knows it's apples and oranges.
He can use his timing more against 'lesser players' so to speak, like he did against Gerwyn Price last week, but I'm not sure he believes in his head that he's ready for Michael - but that's just a guess.
Michael is world number one and you can't get out of dodge city too many times against him with just good timing. You need to be really good all the way through and have good timing. Peter Wright did it last week but I don't think Gary is up to it yet.
MVG is in the better position and I'm going to back him in the match treble market (win, most 180s, highest checkout) at a Price Boosted 7/2, which sounds really good.
He can live with Gary on the 180s and the high finish so it's a very tempting bet at that price.
Simon Whitlock () v Raymond van Barneveld (), draw 3/1
Raymond is looking good on three points and he'll be looking to go top of the table if he beats Simon and Michael Smith doesn't take two against Mensur at the start of the night. He's in the hunt and he's been playing pretty steady.
Both players have a long history, with Barney just a bit ahead on head-to-head records but the key question here is how long can Simon keep winning matches on this stage?
To me he was fairly fortunate last week against Rob Cross despite winning 7-1. He did a job, yes but I don't think he commanded it. The match was there to be taken and he took it.
Simon has momentum but you have to go against it once in a while - momentum swings, right? It's a guide, but how long can a run last.
Raymond on the other hands seems so elegant at the moment and his game is pretty close to his best so I think it will be his week again.
The price on the match treble has been boosted to 9/2 and with Raymond good on all categories, I'm happy to back him in that market.
