Wellington vs Auckland Chance of Winning

Wellington did not have a great start to the campaign as they lost the opening game against Central Districts but since then there has been a remarkable turnaround as Wellington have won three games on the bounce and are currently third on the table. In the last game they beat Otago with four wickets to spare.

Auckland were brilliant last season and they got off to a great start this season as Auckland started their campaign with back to back wins but Auckland have struggled since as they have lost back to back games and are fourth on the table. As per our calculations, Wellington are favourites in the upcoming game.
