Melbourne Renegades Team News & Playing 11
None of their batsmen were able to score big last time against cross-town rivals Stars and this cost them the game. The Renegades will hope to change that in their next match against the Strikers and so they will look to the likes of Tim Ludeman, Matthew Short and Dwayne Bravo to play the big knocks. Bravo will also have a major role to play with the ball. The allrounder has taken the most wickets for the team this BBL (12 wickets in 7 matches) and he together with Mohammad Nabi will be the go-to bowlers for the Renegades.

Adelaide Strikers Team News & Playing 11
Their top-order looks pretty strong with the likes of Alex Carey, Jake Weatherald and Colin Ingram. The 171-run opening stand between Carey (100 off 56 balls) and Weatherald (65 off 52 balls) propelled the Strikers to a match-winning total of 187 in the last game against Hobart Hurricanes. Leg-spinner Rashid Khan has taken the BBL 07 by storm with his impressive bowling. He along with Ben Laughlin and Michael Neser are amongst the leading-wicket takers and the trio forms a formidable bowling attack for the Strikers.

Melbourne Renegades vs Adelaide Strikers Prediction
Melbourne Renegades have the advantage of playing at their home ground but they will be well aware of the fact that they have lost five of their past six matches here. They lost to Perth Scorchers and the bottom-placed Melbourne Stars in their previous two games and this will put additional pressure on them with the tournament heading towards its business end. Adelaide Strikers have by far looked the better side and this is clearly reflected by their position on the points table. With a well-rounded batting and bowling, they have been one of the toughest teams to beat this season and so we predict them to trounce the hosts in this battle.
Final Verdict: Back Adelaide Strikers to beat Melbourne Renegades at 1.77 on 1xbet and 1.80 each on Bet365, Unibet and betway.
