Lancashire vs Leicestershire Prediction

The opening pair hasn't quite clicked for them since their 65-run stand in the first match, and the team might want to try out other combinations. The middle-order, however, has been steady enough with the likes of O'Brien, Raine and Akmal. The trio have been scoring rather consistently and they will be the ones to watch out for when Leicestershire come out to bat.

Ben Raine has taken 9 wickets so far and is just a wicket away from becoming the leading wicket-taker this season. The seamer took 3 scalps in the last match and the Lancashire batsmen will surely be looking out for him. McKay, Dexter and O'Brien are the others who have also bowled reasonably well

Our Prediction

Lancashire will have the advantage of playing on their home ground at Manchester. But they will also be wary of the fact that they have lost two of their three games at this venue this year. Leicestershire, on the other hand, will be going into this match on the back of a win in their previous match and will be confident in their approach.

Overall, the two teams have gone head-to-head four times and Lancashire Lightning have a 100% win record against Leicestershire Foxes. So we're backing the defending champions Lancashire to win this match.
