Northern Knights vs Canterbury Kings Prediction
Northern Knights and Canterbury Kings have won two times each in the last four matches they have played against each other. However, there will be more pressure on the latter who lost to Auckland Aces in their last match as a defeat here could deny them a place in the top four at the end of the league round. The Knights on the other hand are carrying momentum with them after recording wins in their last three matches and we therefore predict them to continue their winning run.
Final Verdict: Back Northern Knights to beat Canterbury Kings at 1.72 on betway.
