Phil 'The Power' Taylor and Raymond van Barneveld to play at Isle of Man Darts Classic

Two of the most iconic names in darts will face each other at the Villa Marina later next month.

Sixteen-time World Champion Phil 'The Power' Taylor is to reignite his rivalry with Dutch ace Raymond van Barneveld.

The pair sparred for more than a decade on the professional darts circuit and Taylor has a better head-to-head record - with 61 wins to Barney's 18.

A disagreement between the two made the headlines after a thrilling World Championship semi-final in 2013.

Tickets are now on sale for darts fans to see the two legends of the sport play each other once again on October 11 in the Isle of Man Darts Classic.

Former player and commentator Wayne Mardle will also be at the event.
