The most recent match between Desert Vipers and MI Emirates was a nail-biter, with the Vipers winning on a thrilling last ball finish. Vipers pacers Mohammed Amir and Luke Wood made life difficult for MI Emirates batsmen, removing the top three before the powerplay ended. The Sri Lankan spin and pace duo Hasaranga and Pathirana maintained the pressure. The MI Emirates bowlers counterpunched, removing seven Vipers batsmen with only 100 runs on the board, but lower-order batsmen Sherfane Rutherford (35 runs from 22 balls) and Shaheen Afridi (17 from 12) combined to get them through in the final over.

MI Emirates will aim for a tit-for-tat victory. They know they weren’t at their best in their previous meeting, so they’ll make an effort to come out strong. We predict that MI Emirates will be difficult to stop in this contest. The Vipers have a good team on paper, but their players appear to be out of touch. It will be difficult for them to beat MI. MI Emirates is our favourite. Considering the team combination, MI Emirates is expected to win this match.
