Andhra vs Railways Match Winner Prediction
Railways are the favourites to win this match. Their recent form in the Vijay Hazare Trophy is good, where they won four of the last five matches. While Andhra hasn't been at their best in recent times losing three matches in a row in the VHT. They lost the first match of the season against Delhi failing to defend 299 runs.
Despite, Andhra's poor run of form, we do feel they have the ability to pull of a huge win, given the quality of players in the lineup and we are going against the odds in this fixture and back Andhra to come out on top and secure their first win of the season.
Our Prediction: Andhra to Win!
