Joe Cullen vs Peter Wright: How Long Till Peter Continues His Supremacy?

Joe Cullen and Peter Wright are ready to oppose each other in the sixth round of the Premier League, on 17 March 2022, at Motorpoint Arena, Nottingham.

The League started with a defeat in Joe’s hands. However, the player made it to the second round final beating James Wade 6-3 and Gerwyn Price 6-5. He lost the final to Jonny Clayton, followed by two consecutive losses to Michael van Gerwen and Michael Smith. After which, he finally won the quarter-finals of the night five over Gerwyn Price 6-0. Cullen’s performance in the league has been on and off, but his victories highlight that he can ace his game with a tiny bit of more effort. Apart from the league, Joe has competed with Peter 9 times in the past five years and successfully only once. The coming match might be his chance to change the ongoing pattern of victories in favor of Peter.

Peter has been at the top of his game since night 1, winning over Michael Smith 6-3, Gary Anderson 6-5, and Jonny Clayton 6-1. He wasn’t very fortunate in the second round but made it to the semi-finals in the next, beating Gary Anderson 6-4. Peter's last game ended in defeat before two incredible wins by Gerwyn Price and James Wade. With such a magnificent performance, Peter is expected to pile successes this season. Moreover, Peter has been immensely leading the head-to-head for five years with eight wins against 1 of Cullen. Losing this game wouldn’t be a massive loss for Peter but winning it will help him make his trail of victory prominent, and he’ll probably make good use of this golden chance. 

Cullen is lagging in the head to head but has scored some good wins through the series. At the same time, Peter is explicitly on the lead and putting forward an auspicious performance this season. Peter will be very confident and motivated not to miss the opportunity to claim the 7th successive victory over Cullen.
