Melbourne Renegades vs Sydney Sixers match prediction

Melbourne Renegades will square off against Sydney Sixers in match number 19 of the Big Bash League 2019-2020 edition at the Docklands Stadium in Melbourne on January 2.

Renegades have lost all four of their matches that they have played so far and being the defending champions, this is the worst possible start to the new season of the league Aaron Finch and co. could have imagined. Sixers on the other hand have done relatively well and have piled up six points from five games and are currently third in the points table.

Renegades skipper shows strenght

Aaron Finch to be the top batsman for Renegades @ 3.50 (Coral)

Melbourne Renegades skipper Aaron Finch has finally switched on the run scoring mode after a couple of quiet starts. In his last two matches he has went on to score two half-centuries and has already reached the third spot in the highest run getter’s list in the ongoing BBL. Despite his team losing all the four matches so far, Finch did not stop to lead by example from the front. He is also the highest run getter for the Renegades this season and if he wants to turn the wheels of fortune in their favour, he will look to emulate what he did for Surrey in the Vitality Blast 2019, where the Australian went on to score 398 runs at an average of 36.18 in 13 matches and had one century and as many fifties to his name.

In the previous season, he could only play eight games for the Renegades and yet he managed to power his side to lift the trophy for the first time and in those many games, Finch scored 220 runs. Finch has odds of 3.50 offered by Coral and the way he shaped up in the last two matches, it looks like he is going to be on top of his form against Sixers as well. He is the second highest run getter against Sixers with 210 runs under his belt when these two sides have collided in the past.

Aussie man with fast throws

Sean Abbott to be the top bowler for Sixers @ 3.75 (Boyle Sports)

With 11 wickets in five matches, Abbott is yet again topping the charts in the ongoing season of the Big Bash League. The fast bowler from New South Wales has an average of 13.45 and has struck at a rate of 10.9. His figures in this season – 2/28, 3/30, 2/42, 3/20 and 1/28, are suggestive of the fact that Abbott has been sensational in this edition.

The Aussie is continuing from where he left the previous season as the second highest wicket taker with 22 scalps in 15 matches. It seems he likes to set the trend! Abbott has picked up eight wickets against Sixers in the past and that is the joint second highest along with Ben Dwarshuis. Boyle Sports is offering odds of 3.75 for Abbott to be the top team bowler for Melbourne Renegades and the outcome is almost inevitable.

Big advantage playing at Docklands

Renegades to hit more sixes @ 1.90 (Bet 365)

If you are to follow the past records, you will understand that Melbourne Renegades will end up hitting more sixes in their forthcoming fixture against Sydney Sixers. The two sides have met 10 times in the past and Renegades have smashed 63 sixes compared to Sixers’ meagre 38 hits. Renegades and Sixers have collided in five occasions at Docklands Stadium in Melbourne, and in these many matches, the hosts have hit 34 sixes compared to the visitors’

However, in this edition of the Big Bash League, Renegades have managed to hit 19 of them and on the other hand, Sixers have hit 22 sixes. But it is not going to matter as the match is going to be played at Docklands, where the home advantage will come into play. Bet 365 is offering odds of 1.90 for Renegades to hit more sixes than Sixers and that is the likely outcome.;
