Match prediction Sydney Sixers vs Melbourne Stars

We have reached the final, only one team could walk away with the studded-trophy and there are two teams fighting for it. The Sydney Sixers and the Melbourne Stars have to do it all in the finals, with the Sixers having won the inaugural tournament while Stars collapsed dramatically in the last year’s final.

While the Stars come into the finals following their win over Sydney Thunder, their opposition for the night have been unbeaten in their last four encounters. The last two times these two sides have faced each other, the result was unfavourable for the Stars, with the Sixers walking away with an easy victory. The only blip this season, however, came in the first H2H game that they played, where Marcus Stoinis scored 147* in a rather dramatic fashion. If Stoinis sets the tone for the Saturday encounter, the Sixers might be far from getting to a respectable position with the ball.

With this encounter, you could land yourself up with money, and loads of them. Follow the guide that we have created which will guarantee you a low-risk high-reward return.

Low scoring game expected

We have reached the final stage of the tournament, where after one-and-a-half-months of runs, wickets and drama. While runs have been the prime focus elsewhere in the country, wickets will get the better of them cometh the wicket at the Sydney Cricket Ground. In the last five games at the SCG, only two times have the teams managed to score above the 300-mark, failing in the three other encounters. 268, 268 and 298 are the scores under the 300-mark, which makes the opening case for the bet. If you think that is not enough, here is more proof that the runs will dry up in the finals. In the last game that the two sides played each other, they could only manage only 241 runs. In H2H matches, the scores been put by the two sides are 241, 268, 394, 242, 262 which is nowhere close to 302.5 runs. Oh, bonus tip, with a heavy prediction of rain in Sydney, the game might well be shortened, which makes the bet a no-brainer.

Stoinis has 51.60 in average against sixers

Marcus Stoinis has already scored 695 runs in the tournament and has the last chance of making it over 700, creating an all-time BBL record. Never in the BBL history has a batsman reached the 700 run barrier, with Stoinis having the best opportunity to carve the record his own name. Not going by his recent form, the right-handed opener has feasted heavily on the Sydney Sixers. In the six games that he has played against them, the 30-year-old has scored 258 runs, averaging nearly 51.60. At the SCG where the finals are going to be hosted, the right-hander averages 32.33 and being the opener, there is the highest probability that he will emerge as the top batsman for the Melbourne Stars. In contrast, only Glenn Maxwell has more runs than Stoinis against the Sixers, however, Maxwell has never crossed 20 runs in his last four games, making Stoinis the best pick.

Nine wickets in last five from Zampa

Haris Rauf has an odd of 2.87 for being the highest wicket-taker against the Sixers come this Saturday. However, Adam Zampa’s record in the past against the Sixers will prove that even an odd of 5.00 could triumph an odd of 2.87 when it is pitted correctly. Case one, Zampa has more wickets than the right-arm pacer against the Sixers this season. While the pacer has picked up only two wickets in the tournament against the Sixers, Zampa has picked up five in just two games. In the last five games, Zampa has picked up nine wickets, including 3/21, 3/27 in his last two appearances for the Gold and Green. Against the Sixers, the leggie has picked up seven wickets in his last five appearances. Given that, the Sixers are a tad weak against the spinners in the middle overs and extremely strong against the pacers, we are bucking the trend, it should be a no-brainer to go for Zampa. Another thing that could prove a point is that Zampa is the highest wicket-taker for the Stars at the SCG, the venue where the final is going to be played at. And after all of this, if you did not place a bet on Zampa, it is your loss.
