Peshawar Zalmi vs Islamabad United prediction

The winner of this tie will head into the final of the Pakistan Super League this season, while the loser will head into a playoff with the winner of the other playoff clash between the Multan Sultans and Hyderabad Kingsmen.

Peshawar Zalmi had enjoyed eight victories with a no result in their opening nine matches before they succumbed to a six-wicket loss to Lahore Qalandars at the weekend. Islamabad, on the other hand, eased to a comfortable win against Multan Sultans the other day to mean that they have now won three of their last four matches.

Islamabad United have found some form of late but, back to strength with the motivation of a playoff clash, Peshawar should come out on top in Karachi.
