Adelaide Strikers vs Melbourne Renegades match prediction 33rd match

Adelaide Strikers vs Melbourne Renegades | Best Team Bets in the Market

The 33rd match of the Big Bash League will take place between the Melbourne Renegades and the Adelaide Strikers, at the Adelaide Oval in Adelaide on Friday, the 8th of January.

Melbourne Renegades lost to Adelaide Strikers in their previous game on Tuesday at the same venue, but they would find solace in the fact that Perth Scorchers managed to make their comeback against the Strikers at Adelaide Oval. The Strikers are the favourites to win this match as they have won 4 of the 8 games they have played this season, and they are on a 4 match streak against the Renegades. The Renegades have managed to pull off only 1 victory from the 8 matches they have played this season and are currently at the bottom of the table. While the odds for betting on the Strikers might not be that high, I have assorted the best bets from the market so you can score a win from the game too.

Total runs scored to be under 316.5

Let's start with the easiest bet on the market. Melbourne Renegades have played 7 complete matches so far, and from the games, they have managed to score a total of only 796 runs, at an average of 113.71 runs per match. Adelaide Strikers have played 8 matches and racked up 1231 runs at an average of 153.88 runs per match. This points to the total runs scored to be around 267.59 runs and they did score a total of 282 runs in the match they played on Tuesday. If we add to this, the fact that from the 14 matches that the two teams have played in the season, the total runs scored was only over 316.5 twice, against the Hobart Hurricanes for the Strikers, and against the Sydney Sixers for the Renegades, and in both the matches the bulk of the score was scored by the opposing teams. RoyalPanda.com has offered odds of 1.85 for the Total runs scored to be under 316.5 and you should pick this bet while you have the chance.

Total Fours hit to be under 26.5

I have found yet another winner for you with this bet. Melbourne Renegades came out to bat in 7 innings in this season and have managed to hit 65 fours from the games, at an average of 9.29, they have conceded 85 fours from the games, at an average of 12.14. Adelaide Strikers have hit 103 boundaries from the games, at an average of 12.88, while they have conceded 100 fours, at an average of 12.5 fours per match. All this points to the total number of fours to be around 22.17. If we look at their game on Tuesday, which was played on the same pitch, the teams scored a total of 19 boundaries. While the total number of fours have been higher for the teams in 5 of the 14 matches played by them, in 4 out of the five matches, the bulk of the boundaries were scored by the opponents, and not the teams we are looking at. Sportsbet.io has offered odds of 1.85 for the total fours hit to be under 26.5.

Adelaide Strikers to hit most match Sixes

I thought we should end on a high with this bet and pick who would be able to hit more sixes. Both the teams conceded more sixes in their games on an average, than the number of sixes that they managed to hit. Adelaide Strikers have still hit more Sixes than the Renegades on an average in the season. From the 8 matches, Strikers have hit a total of 34 sixes at an average of 4.25, while they have conceded 38 sixes, at an average of 4.75. The Renegades have managed to hit only 19 sixes from the 7 matches in the season, at an average of 2.71 and they managed to concede 47 sixes from the games at an average of 6.71. So not only have the Renegades managed to hit sixes at a lower average, but they have also conceded 9 more sixes than the Strikers, with one less game. Even in the game between them on Tuesday, Strikers hit 7 Sixes, while Renegades hit only 4. Sportsbet.io has offered odds of 1.87 for Adelaide Strikers to hit the most match Sixes.
