When: Thursday, 2nd January at 3:45PM
Where: Sydney Showgrounds
Bet: Bet On This Match HERE
Preview:
Melbourne could move into first place on the ladder with a victory over Sydney, but as recent history suggests, the Stars have typically struggled against the Thunder.
Having won only one of their last five games against Sydney, it could be worth backing an upset here with the Thunder playing at home. Sydney has a lot to play for sitting fourth on the ladder behind a 2-1 record, while the Thunder’s 4-2 record as the underdog over the last calendar year is also convincing.
Odds:
Tip: Melbourne Stars $1.66
