History is on the verge of being made as Littler aims to become the first back-to-back champion.
Meanwhile, Van Veen is in pursuit of his first World Title, and Van Gerwen expressed: “Tonight, two remarkable talents step onto the grandest stage of our sport.
“Luke, the opportunity to become a back-to-back World Champion is something that very few get to experience.
“I have great respect for what you have accomplished already and for how you conduct yourself at such a young age.
“Gian, seeing you develop into the player you are today fills me with immense pride.
“If the next Dutch World Champion carries your name, the future of our sport at home is undoubtedly bright.
“Savor every moment, remain true to yourselves, and let your darts do the talking. The stage is yours. Best of luck to both of you.”
Van Gerwen was eliminated from the tournament in the quarter-finals by rival Anderson.
Littler advanced to the final after defeating Ryan Searle.
The teenage prodigy previously triumphed over Van Veen at the World Youth Championship, but the underdog eagerly anticipates the opportunity to face the darts sensation.
Van Veen told the BBC : “Everyone has witnessed what Luke is capable of over the past couple of years. He has performed exceptionally in this tournament, but so have I.
“I am genuinely looking forward to it, and I hope it will be an exciting match.”
