Our Prediction
Favorites to win: Siechem Madurai Panthers
The kind of form that Sai Sudharsan has found himself in, it is unlikely that he is going to stop. Even if he does, the impetus that Lyca can provide is clear from the fact that Ram Arvindh is in superb form and notched up a half century in the last game for Lyca. Further, from Siechem, I am expecting Suresh Lokeshwar to do well and lead the Madurai-based franchise to a classic win.
SMP to win @ 2.32 (Parimatch)
LKK to win @ 1.55 (Parimatch)
