Leicestershire vs Derbyshire Chance of Winning

Leicestershire did not have a great start to the campaign last season as they lost two of the first three games. Leicestershire missed the playoffs last season and would be hoping for a better showing this term. They ended the campaign with just two wins in seven matches and were fifth on the table.

Derbyshire struggled in the first half of the campaign but had a strong finish to the campaign as they had two defeats in the last six matches but it was not enough as Derbyshire missed the playoffs by a single point. As per our calculations, Leicestershire are favourites in the upcoming game.

Leicestershire vs Derbyshire Prediction & Betting Tips 2025

Soloman Budinger had an underwhelming campaign last season as he scored 172 runs with an average of 15.63 which showcases his struggle. We believe Budinger will score low in the upcoming game.

Samit Patel had a decent campaign last season as he scored 238 runs last term. Patel was exceptional in the two games against Leicestershire as he scored two half centuries which makes us believe he will score well in the upcoming game.

Leicestershire vs Derbyshire Match Toss Prediction

Historically the venue has suited the team that bat first. The last three games have been won by the team that bowled first, which makes us believe both sides would prefer to chase in the upcoming game.

Weather Report

With 20% chances of disruptions we believe climate would not play a major role in the game. Maximum temperature is expected to be 22C during the game and minimum temperature is expected to be 14C.

Leicestershire vs Derbyshire Betting Odds

Derbyshire to have a better opening partnership than Leicestershire

Leicestershire and Derbyshire head into this campaign after both sides struggled in the group stages last season. Both sides had similar campaigns last season as both teams had six wins in 14 matches and they ended up outside the top four. Both teams went head to head twice last season and Derbyshire dominated both games last season. In the first game Derbyshire managed to chase down the target and won the game with six wickets to spare and in the second game Derbyshire conceded 184 runs and eventually won the game with four wickets to spare. What makes this tip so enticing is the fact on both occasions Derbyshire had a better opening partnership which makes us believe they will once again end up with a better opening stand in the upcoming game.
