Sydney Thunder vs Melbourne Renegades prediction

Sydney Thunder became the first team to be eliminated from this season’s Big Bash League after losing by seven wickets to Brisbane Heat on Saturday, their fifth consecutive defeat and seventh out of eight games played across the league stage. Melbourne Renegades may sit just a place above the Thunder, but they boast four more points having won two more matches.

Whilst the Renegades have hardly been sparkling across the campaign, they face a group of players who may well have their eyes on future assignments away from the Thunder. Motivation will likely be low and in what is a must-win game for the visitors, it’s well worth backing Melbourne to get the job done.
