Dream11 Prediction
The Titans are going into this match with a strong batting line-up and a decent bowling attack to boot. Several all-rounders are playing in the side that adds balance and depth to both their batting and bowling attacks. Although they had to face a defeat in the competition, they have won a lot more matches than the Warriors and are on a roll at the moment. The Warriors' batting line-up on the other hand lacks consistency. The top three batters playing for the Warriors have to put up a big score on the board. The Warriors' bowling attack lacks discipline and keeps on conceding runs in most of their matches. We will bet with the Titans to win this match and consolidate their position in the points table.
