Birmingham Bears are the favorites to win this match.
After defeating Steelbacks, a team in form, in the last game, Birmingham Bears will feel certain they can defeat anyone in this competition. Despite the fact that Worcestershire Rapids defeated the Bears in their most recent match, we believe Birmingham will prevail because they have been the worst team in the tournament this year.
