James Wade vs. Madars Razma (Nordic Darts Masters): odds and bets 05.06.2026

On paper, this is the match with the greatest potential for parity and tactical play on the entire card. James “The Machine” Wade is the undisputed king of survival. He’s not a player who’s going to dazzle you with a barrage of 180s, but his surgical precision on the finish (especially the double 10 and double 20) punishes any mistake mercilessly. Wade adapts to whatever pace is needed to scrape a victory.

Latvian Madars Razma is a tough competitor who already holds a professional tour card and has plenty of television experience. Razma is known for his unhurried, unorthodox style of play, something that often drives top players to despair, though it won’t affect Wade in the slightest. Given the style of both players, focused more on placement and finishing than on scoring big, the match looks set to be a long one with plenty of twists and turns. We’re sticking with this high line, predicting a 6-4 or 6-5 result decided by the finest of margins in the final darts.
