Northern Knights vs Otago Chance of Winning

Northern Knights have had a solid start to the campaign as they had just one loss in the first five matches but in the last game Northern Knights fell short against Canterbury as they failed to chase down the target and eventually lost the game by 23 runs. Northern Knights are currently fourth on the table.

Much like their opponents, Otago got off to a great start this season as they lost just once in the first five games but they head into their final game in group stages after three defeats on the bounce and need a win to stay in contention for playoffs. As per our calculations, Northern Knights are favourites in the upcoming game.

Northern Knights to have a better opening partnership than Otago

Northern Knights and Otago had similar starts to the campaign this season as both sides had just one defeat in the first five games. Both teams are on the opposite side of the spectrum when it comes to form as Otago heads into their final game of the season after three defeats on the bounce and even though they are currently second on the table, Otago need a win if they aspire to make the playoffs this season as the chasing teams have game in hand. On the other hand , Northern Knights have one defeat in the last four matches and are currently fourth on the table. Both sides went head to head earlier this season and Northern Knights won the game, they also had a better opening stand on the day which makes us believe they would once again end up with a better opening partnership in the upcoming game.
