Abu Dhabi Knight Riders go into this game as slight favourites, and we expect them to win it.
Abu Dhabi Knight Riders come in with the better form, having won two of their last five games, while Gulf Giants have won one of their last five. They also have the upper hand over Gulf Giants, winning 4 of the 7 meetings between the two sides that produced a result. They know these conditions, with two wins from four games at this venue, compared with no from one for Gulf Giants.
The toss could matter here. Chasing has been the better option at this ground, so the captain who calls right may well choose to bowl first. We expect a first-innings score of around 165, and anything well above that should put the batting side in control.

Zayed Cricket Stadium, Abu Dhabi

Toss call: a close one. Bowling first and knowing the target is the safer choice.
