The match is going to be a seesaw battle as both teams are in a good run of form-winning games consistently.

Their batting unit other than Joe Clarke and Colin Munro often failed to score runs. The outcome of the match will be based on how both teams' bowlers will deliver. Nottinghamshire has an edge over Worcestershire as Nottinghamshire's bowling attack is looking more lethal and experienced than Worcestershire's. We predict Nottinghamshire to outperform Worcestershire and rac up another win.

  • Nottinghamshire is to win the match @ 1.575
