THE LOWDOWN
SYDNEY SIXERS
- Sydney Sixers never got the chance to complete a run chase of 152 in the reverse ‘Sydney Smash’ fixture as rain curtailed proceedings with the Sixers well-placed on 34/1 from four overs.
- Since then, Sydney Sixers have won just once, beating Melbourne Stars by seven wickets last time out, but two points here should guarantee them a play-off place with one league game still remaining.
SYDNEY THUNDER
- Sydney Thunder have more games in hand than any other BBL side and they will need to make full use of them if they are to make a last-gasp leap into the top four with them currently cut adrift on just three points.
- Just one win from seven matches underlines the Thunder’s struggles, five of those games ending in defeat alongside the abandonment vs the Sixers at the Showground Stadium, which more than likely would have seen them beaten as well.
THE PREDICTION
Sydney Sixers come into this key game as comfortable favourites to triumph and whilst form can go out of the window in a ‘local derby’, the Sixers should have no excuse not to get the better of their Sydney counterparts, who are behind them in every department at the moment. Expect a professional performance from the hosts and an important victory to lock in a top four finish, eliminating the Thunder in the process.
BETTING TIP: SYDNEY SIXERS TO WIN
