Jamaica vs St Kitts Betting Odds
St Kitts and Nevis Patriots are second on the CPL 2017 leaderboard having won five and lost two out of the eight matches played so far. Even though the Patriots are coming into this game after suffering an eight-wicket loss at the hands of Trinbago Knight Riders in their last match, Bet365 have them as favorites to win this match at a short price of 1.66. Jamaica Tallawahs, despite playing on their home ground, find themselves outsiders at 2.20 with Bet365.
Jamaica vs St Kitts Prediction
Both the teams have performed well, winning five games each from the eight they have played so far. There is plenty of talent on either side and it gets very difficult to choose between the two. However, Jamaica Tallawahs will have an upper hand as they have beaten St Kitts and Nevis Patriots three times out of five in the past which includes the double over them in the previous season. The Tallawahs will be playing at home and so we predict them to emerge victorious in this encounter.
Final Verdict: Back Jamaica Tallawahs to beat St Kitts and Nevis Patriots at 2.20 with Bet365.
