Preview:
The Stars continue to be the front-runners in the Big Bash this season and they go into this clash on the back of eight straight wins.
Their record against the Sixers is strong and they have won the past three meetings between the two sides, so it is no surprise that the Stars will start this game as favourites.
You can’t write off the Sixers though.
Their batting does have issues, as we saw when they collapsed against the Sydney Thunder on Saturday, but their bowlers can fire on their day and their record in front of their home fans is excellent.
The Sixers have won six of their past seven games at the SCG and they are 3-0 as home underdogs for a clear profit.
The Stars are due a poor performance and it really would not surprise to see the Sixers pull off another upset win at the SCG.
