SFU vs SEO Probable Winners:

Both teams are closely matched, but we believe Seattle Orcas is more dependable. Sure, SFU began with a win, but one good (or bad) result does not alter the team's core. We recommend sticking to the fundamental principles of supporting the better team and not being swayed by a single outcome! Considering the team combination, San Francisco Unicorns is expected to win this match.

San Francisco and Seattle are both on the board and have shown strong displays with both bat and ball. SFU, with the bat in particular have been impressive while SEO will want to work on their own batting after a successful but tough chase in their previous fixture.

SFU vs SEO Key Players

Shimron Hetmyer

Shimron Hetmyer missed out on the World Cup Qualifiers and would be regretting what went on there with the West Indies side. He is still a big part of franchise cricket though and will be hoping to shake off what has happened with his national team here.

Corey Anderson

Before his back injury, Corey Anderson was hot potential in international cricket. His explosive batting and ability to chip in with some key overs made him a valuable player. His injury though turned his career around quickly leaving him to go off the radar. Now though, Anderson has the opportunity to get back in the spotlight with a big tournament ahead.

SFU vs SEO Match Tips

With more international and in-form talent, SFU looks a lot more consistent and could be a favorite here.
