TEAMS PREVIEW
Melbourne Renegades Preview
It was a much-needed win for Will Sutherland's team in the last game against the Perth Scorchers. After three consecutive losses, the side got its acts together, winning by 4 wickets. They will be under pressure in this game, losing against the Melbourne Stars earlier in the season. Sutherland would like his team to deliver a strong performance in this game.
Tim Seifert has struggled with his form this season and must deliver a strong start with Marcus Harris. Jake Fraser-McGurk, Jacob Bethell, and Laurie Evans didn't contribute to the cause in the last game, and the side expects runs from them in the middle order. Thomas Rogers and Will Sutherland add firepower to the batting in the lower middle order.
Thomas Rogers and Gurinder Sandhu leaked runs with the new ball in the last game. They must strike early to put the team in a commanding position. Kane Richardson and Adam Zampa are the key bowlers in the team and need to keep the scoring under check in the middle overs. The side will also expect a good show from Sutherland and Jacob Bethell in the supporting role.
Melbourne Renegades Predicted Playing XI:
Will Sutherland (c), Jake Fraser-McGurk, Marcus Harris, Tim Seifert (wk), Jacob Bethell, Jonathan Wells, Laurie Evans, Thomas Stewart Rogers, Adam Zampa, Gurinder Sandhu, Kane Richardson

Melbourne Stars Preview
Marcus Stoinis' side is back in the reckoning for a place in the playoffs. They have made a strong comeback in the tournament with three consecutive wins. The bowlers performed clinically in the last game against the Sydney Sixers, defending a small total and winning by 16 runs. The players look confident, and Stonis expects a strong show from his key players in this game.
The batting lineup hasn't been in the best shape this season. The team needs a good start from Ben Duckett and Sam Harper, as they have struggled with consistency. Beau Webster will look to build partnerships in the middle order with Dan Lawrence and Marcus Stoinis. Glenn Maxwell adds X-factor to this lineup and will look to add quick runs with Hilton Cartwright.
Mark Steketee bowled a match-winning spell in the last game, and he will need support with the new ball from Joel Paris, who struggled in the last game. Usama Mir and Peter Siddle look good, making the team confident. Stoinis, Maxwell, and Webster add depth to the bowling attack, making it strong.
Melbourne Stars Predicted Playing XI:
Marcus Stoinis (c), Ben Duckett, Sam Harper (wk), Beau Webster, Daniel Lawrence, Glenn Maxwell, Hilton Cartwright, Usama Mir, Joel Paris, Mark Steketee, Peter Siddle

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS
Weather Conditions
We will see overcast skies over Melbourne on January 12. We expect a flat, but the weather will make it challenging for the batsmen. They must get their eyes set to score runs on this wicket. The side batting first would need 170 on this wicket to feel confident, with the average first-inning score being 156 runs.
MLR vs MLS Pitch Report
Docklands Stadium, Melbourne, has a flat surface, and the outfield here is fast. We have seen sides put up big scores at this venue. Fast bowlers get a hint of assistance from the track, but it is a challenging venue for the spinners as the shorter boundaries don't leave a margin for error.
Total Over/Under Betting Tips

Toss: To Bowl
The side chasing the score has won here on most occasions. The wicket is challenging in the first innings and eases in the second half. The side that wins the toss would like to take advantage of the conditions by opting to bowl first.

Winning Prediction
The two teams will be under pressure to win this game and keep their hopes alive for the playoffs. The Melbourne Renegades have suffered from inconsistency in the last two weeks and need the middle order to take more responsibility and deliver a strong performance. The Melbourne Stars have won the last three games and have momentum, giving them an edge.
