Dave Chisnall keen to build on early results

Dave Chisnall believes that his narrow victory over Raymond van Barneveld last week showed that he possesses the all-round game to remain towards the top of the Premier League table.

Chisnall's 7-5 triumph over the defending champion followed his 7-1 thrashing of Peter Wright, and ahead of his third fixture with James Wade, the St Helens thrower is hopeful that he can maintain his early unbeaten record.

The 34-year-old told PDC.tv: "You have to have a good start and four points so far is a good start for me. I ground out the win last week and you've got to do that sometimes, and it should be a good game against James.

"James is playing very well at the moment but I've just got to take my recent game up there and hopefully I can do the business."

Chisnall has only won four of his previous 12 meetings with the world number six.
