The Brisbane Heat Women have won four of their last five meetings against the Melbourne Renegades Women. They began the new season with a solid win and will look to maintain that form. Furthermore, they are playing at home, giving them a small advantage. The Renegades, despite their recent loss, have a well-balanced roster and will not go down without a fight. Considering the team combination, Brisbane Heat-W is expected to win this match.

Brisbane Heat are off to a good start this season but will now be contending with the loss of some players due to national duty. Melbourne Renegades are yet to hit their stride with their first game called off due to an unsafe pitch while the second game did not go so well for them.
