Central Districts vs Canterbury Betting Odds

Canterbury to have a better opening partnership than Central Districts

Central Districts and Canterbury go head to head after both sides have had a contrasting campaign thus far. Central Districts struggled last season but have been solid in this campaign as they have four wins in six matches and are currently second on the table. On the other hand, Canterbury has failed to replicate their form of last season as they have just one win in four matches. They lost three games on the bounce before they registered their first win against Auckland. Canterbury are currently fifth on the table. What makes this tip even more enticing is the fact even though Canterbury has struggled so far they have managed a better opening partnership in three of the four matches which makes us believe they would once again end up with a better opening stand in the upcoming game.
