There is very little between these two sides. We give Victoria a narrow edge, at 51% to win.
Victoria come in with the better form, having won two of their last five games, while Western Australia have won one of their last five. Their results this season back this up: Victoria are 2nd in the table, Western Australia 6th. That said, Western Australia lead the head-to-head record 2-0, and they also have the better record at this ground (one win from one), 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 255, and anything well above that should put the batting side in control.

VIC vs WA Pitch Report
Junction Oval, Melbourne
Conditions at Junction Oval have been fairly balanced, with neither bat nor ball on top.
The first-innings average over the last 40 List A games at this ground is 254, and 222 in the second innings. Batting first, a side will want something around 240-270 on the board. There is little to choose between batting first and chasing, 20 wins to 20 across the last 40 decided games.
The last 5 first-innings scores here, newest first: 311 (SAUS, won), 122/5 (SAUS-W), 257 (NEW, won), 285 (VIC, lost), 266/9 (NSW-W, won). Recent games have followed the usual pattern, with the last 5 first innings averaging 248. First-innings totals here have ranged from 87 to 383 in that time.
Conditions should be fine for cricket, partly cloudy with temperatures around 13°C. Toss call: a close one. Bowling first and knowing the target is the safer choice.
