In the last match they lost against Melbourne Renegades by four wickets.

Sydney Sixers’ batters failed to show up in the last game against Brisbane Heat but they still managed to win the game with three wickets to spare. After a disappointing start to the season, they have won three of the last four matches. As per our calculations, Melbourne Stars are favourites in the upcoming game.

Melbourne Stars vs Sydney Sixers Prediction & Tips 2026

Glenn Maxwell has struggled to make an impact this season as so far this season he has scored 43 runs in six matches with an average of 14.33. In the last game he scored one run which makes us believe he will score low in the upcoming game.

Babar Azam have struggled for consistency this season but has still been one of the top run scorers for Sydney Sixers this season. Even though he struggled in the last game, we expect him to bounce back and do well in the upcoming game.
