Their batting will depend mainly on the likes of Mark Chapman, Glenn Phillips and Robert O'Donnell. Phillips is coming off a magnificent 38-ball 65 against Northern Knights and the team will want the in-form batsman to score big again. Tarun Nethula and Ben Lister will be the bowlers to watch out for. Both shared five wickets between them and they are expected to deliver the goods for Auckland against Wellington.

Auckland Aces vs Wellington Firebirds Betting Odds
Auckland Aces and Wellington Firebirds are both priced at 1.03 on 1xbet to win this match. While the former are placed fourth on the points table with one win and one loss in two league matches, the latter are second in the standings with one win, one loss and a washout in three matches.
Auckland vs Wellington Prediction
Both teams are coming into this match after facing defeats in their respective last matches and will look to get back on the winning track. Auckland Aces have the home advantage in their favor and they even beat Central Districts at this ground in the opening game of the tournament. However, their record against Wellington Firebirds in recent times has not been that impressive. In the last five matches between these two sides, the Firebirds have won on four occasions. So the visitors have an edge here which is why we predict them to win this match.
Final Verdict: Back Wellington Firebirds to beat Auckland Aces at 1.03 on 1xbet.
