Perth Scorchers vs Melbourne Stars prediction

Both these two teams could be guaranteed playoff spots come the start of this game depending on the Sixers result in Friday’s Sydney derby, but either way, this is a hugely important match for Perth Scorchers and Melbourne Stars, with the winner set to finish the league stage top of the table and guaranteed a passage straight through to the qualifier.

Perth Scorchers being at home obviously works in their favour, but Melbourne Stars have gotten back to winning ways recently and are playing very good cricket once again. Whilst Perth have lost two home matches this season, the Stars have been beaten just once on the road. It’s well worth considering backing Melbourne Stars to record a statement victory.
