Favorites to win

Essex

Essex are the in-form side currently, having won their previous two matches. They have played in Chelmsford before and are aware of the conditions too. On the other hand, Glamorgan have struggled with the ball majorly and with another flat pitch in the offing, their bowlers might find the going tough yet again.
