Welsh Fire vs Manchester Originals Prediction & Betting Tips 2025

Tom Kohler-Cadmore was the standout batter last season for Welsh Fire as he was the leading run scorer last term. In the two games thus far he has scored 10 and 4 which makes us believe he will score low in the upcoming game.

Jos Buttler did not have a great start to the campaign as he struggled for consistency but in the last game Buttler scored 46 off 37 balls against London Spirit which makes us believe he will score well in the upcoming game.

Manchester Originals to have a better opening partnership than Welsh Fire

Welsh Fire and Manchester Originals head into this game after both sides have had similar starts to the season so far. Both teams head into this game after two defeats so far and a result in this fixture could have significant impact on the league table. Both sides went head to head last season and Welsh Fire dominated the game as they won the tie with eight wickets to spare. This season Welsh Fire are yet to register a single point this season as they have lost both games thus far and would be hoping to turn things around. What makes this tip so enticing is the fact, Welsh Fire has conceded a bigger opening partnership in both games thus far which makes us believe Manchester Originals will have a better opening partnership in the upcoming game.
