We are backing MI Emirates, who start as favourites with a 60% win chance.
MI Emirates come in with the better form, having won four of their last five games, while Gulf Giants have won one of their last five. They know these conditions, with one wins from two games at this venue, compared with no from one for Gulf Giants. That said, Gulf Giants lead the head-to-head record 5-4, which is why this is far from a sure thing.
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 160, and anything well above that should put the batting side in control.
