Auckland vs Northern Knights Betting Odds

Auckland to have a better opening partnership than Northern Knights

Northern Knights and Auckland head into this game after both sides have had contrasting campaigns thus far which makes this a pretty straight forward game for the home team. Northern Knights have struggled to make an impact thus far as they have just one win in seven matches and are currently sixth on the table. They need a perfect run in the remaining three matches to stay in contention for a playoff spot this season. On the other hand, Auckland have been brilliant thus far as they have five wins in seven matches and are currently second on the table. A win in the upcoming game would all but seal a playoff spot this season. Both sides went head to head earlier this season and Auckland won the game. Even though Northern Knights had a better opening stand on the day, we believe Auckland would have a better opening partnership in the upcoming game.
