Otago vs Central Districts Betting Odds

Otago to have a better opening partnership than Central Districts

Otago and Central Districts head into this fixture after both sides struggled for consistency last season and eventually missed the playoffs last term. Central Districts struggled in the first half of the campaign which ended up being the deciding factor as even though they won three of the last four matches, Central Districts missed the playoffs last season. On the other hand, after a disappointing campaign last season, Otago have got off to a great start as they are unbeaten after two matches. What makes this tip so enticing is the fact that even though Central Districts had an upper hand in both head to head games last season, Otago had a better opening stand in both games which makes us believe Otago will have a better opening partnership in the upcoming game.
