Derbyshire Falcons vs Bears prediction

Whilst last-placed Derbyshire Falcons are out of contention, the Bears are right in the thick of things as they sit in fourth-place, level on points with rivals Worcestershire Rapids. A win here should get the job done for the visitors and they’ll be expected to do just that against a team who have lost nine from 13 in the Blast this season.

Although Derbyshire won’t be a pushover as they look to avoid finishing with the dreaded wooden spoon, Birmingham Bears are the better team and with plenty to play for, should be laser focused headed into the game. Provided any complacency is avoided, Bears will be expected to comfortably defeat the Falcons.
