Otago vs Central Districts Chance of Winning

Otago did not have a great start to the campaign last season and once again have struggled for consistency this term. They won the opening game against Northern Knights but since then have lost back to back games and are currently fifth on the table. In the last match they were beaten by Auckland.

Central Districts struggles from last season have continued in this campaign as they remain the only side who is yet to bag a single win thus far. They went head to head in the last game against Wellington and the game was called off due to bad weather. As per our calculations, Otago are favourites in the upcoming game.

Otago vs Central Districts Betting Odds

Otago to have a better opening partnership than Central Districts

Central Districts and Otago head into this game after both sides have struggled to make a mark thus far. Central Districts had an underwhelming campaign last season and in this campaign they remain the only side yet to register a win thus far. What makes this tip so enticing is the fact in both games thus far Central District has lost the match and have conceded a bigger opening partnership. Otago have one win in three games thus far and in the last game they were beaten by Auckland but they still managed to have a better opening partnership which makes us believe Otago would end up having a better opening stand in the upcoming game.
