Lions vs Knights Chance of Winning

Lions have had a mixed start to the campaign as they were dominant in the first two matches against Western Province and Titans but since then their form has taken a nosedive as they have lost back to back games. In the last match they lost against Dolphins by six wickets.

Unlike their opponents, Knights did not have a great start to the campaign as they were winless after two matches. But they have managed to turn things around and have won back to back games against Western Province and Boland. As per our calculations, Lions are favourites in the upcoming game.

Lions vs Knights Betting Odds

Lions to have a better opening partnership than Knights

Knights and Lions head into this game after both sides have had a similar start to the campaign so far. Both teams have two wins in four matches and are right in the mix to make the playoffs this season. Lions got off to a great start this season as they won back to back games but they head into this game after two straight defeats and would be hoping to turn things around in this game. On the other hand Knights were winless after the first two games but they head into this match after back to back wins and would be hoping to continue their momentum in this game. What makes this tip so enticing is the fact even though Knights have won back to back games, they have conceded a bigger opening partnership in both matches which makes us believe Lions would end up with a better opening partnership in the upcoming game.
