THE PREDICTION
With Group 2 rivals Gloucestershire and Hampshire also facing off in this final round of County Championship games, Somerset will know that victory here will be enough to seal themselves a place in Division One come September. The visitors know that opponents Surrey could be there for the taking after their performance vs Hampshire last time out and with Ollie Pope out injured and Will Jacks with England, much will rely on captain Rory Burns with the bat and New Zealand international Kyle Jamieson with the ball. Somerset however, look a far more well-rounded side in first class cricket and providing they dismiss Burns early, will stand a great chance of triumphing again here. With that in mind, consider Somerset to win draw no bet on what is usually a good batting pitch.
