THE LOWDOWN
The Kent Spitfires come into this on the back of a 28-run victory via DLS against the Essex Eagles on Friday night. That victory continued an impressive start to the season on which they come into this fixture joint top of the south table alongside Gloucestershire. They come up against a Somerset side that have won three and had two abandonments in their last five matches to move towards the top as well. Despite that improving season, the visitors have been fairly inadequate with both bat and ball; Hildreth leads their runs with just 141 whilst Josh Davey and Marchant de Lange lead the wicket-takers with just six.
THE PREDICTION
As mentioned, Somerset are in good form and have been improving but they are yet to really set a match alight and tend to either be good at restricting or doing just enough to win. They will come into this match as the underdogs against a Spitfires close to confirming their own qualification into the quarter-finals.
