Multan Sultans Team News & Playing 11
They have been impressive in both batting and bowling departments so far this season. While Kumar Sangakkara and Shoaib Malik have scored runs consistently for the Sultans, the likes of Imran Tahir, Junaid Khan, Mohammad Irfan and Sohail Tanvir have shown good skills with the ball. Sangakkara has bossed the oppositions' bowlers and he will be the key man for his side when it comes to batting. Junaid Khan looks the most threatening in this pace attack and he will be expected to provide the early breakthroughs. Imran Tahir picked up a hat-trick last time against the Gladiators and he could trouble them again with his leg-breaks.

Quetta Gladiators Team News & Playing 11
Batting seems to be the biggest concern for them at the moment with only Shane Watson (146 runs in five matches) featuring in the list of top 20 batsmen in the PSL 3 for the Gladiators. And in the last game, which also happened to be the reverse fixture against Multan Sultans, no batsmen except Sarfraz Ahmed could make a meaningful contribution. So the Gladiators will dearly need their key batsmen in Watson, Sarfraz, Rossouw and Pietersen to click together this time. Bowling too looks pretty flat and with Jofra Archer gone, there has been more pressure on the likes of Watson, Hastings and Rahat Ali to do the job.

Multan Sultans vs Quetta Gladiators Betting Odds
Multan Sultans begin as the bookmakers' favorites to win this match with a 1.65 offer on Betfair. Now this could be largely due to the emphatic nine-wicket win they secured against Quetta Gladiators not too long ago at Sharjah. The Gladiators are currently lying in the bottom-half of the points table on the fifth spot with two wins and three defeats from five league fixtures. They are the underdogs to win this game at a slightly higher price of 1.81 on Betfair.
Multan Sultans vs Quetta Gladiators Prediction
Quetta Gladiators are coming on the back of two consecutive defeats which means that they will be playing this game under considerable pressure. And the fact that they were crushed by Multan Sultans in their most recent outing will hurt their confidence even more. The Gladiators have not been able to fire together as a unit and their batsmen in particular will need to raise their game if they are to challenge the quality bowling attack of the Sultans. The Shoaib Malik-led side has been far better in all aspects of the game and we feel that the Gladiators will bite the dust once again.
Final Verdict: Back Multan Sultans to beat Quetta Gladiators at 1.65 on 1xbet.
