Surrey go into their third Natwest T20 Blast match eyeing up a third win in succession after a close fought wins in their opening two fixtures. Middlesex go into their second game, hoping to get their first win on the board after an amazing tied match at Gloucestershire last Friday. They scored big runs but will be concerned about conceding the same number.
Fresh from his recent match-winning innings for England, Dawid Malan will be the man to watch for Middlesex. The left-hander has long been impressive in this format of the game and finally got his reward with an England call-up. Surrey’s Mark Stoneman is a name that you will be hearing a lot about having already been touted for an England spot. Not as destructive as others, building an innings is his mantra and he is a key player for the visitors.
Ahead of our Middlesex VS Surrey odds and free prediction, we take a brief look at their recent form. Surrey have won their opening two contests in tight fashion with wins over Essex and Somerset where they have relied heavily on the top order batting of Australian International Aaron Finch, who hit half-centuries in both games. Middlesex tied their opening game against Gloucestershire with Ryan Higgins the hero. They have struggled for the most part in this competition but did make the Quarter-Finals last year.
This will be the first meeting of the season for either team in the Natwest T20 Blast this season but last season saw an even share of the spoils, both picking up comfortable home wins. In recent years it has been pretty even in their match results, but Surrey have a pedigree in this format, whilst Middlesex have the one tournament win, way back in 2008.

Surrey have the form going into this match with two wins from their opening two games but we feel that Middlesex have the firepower in their batting to either post a strong score or chase down any total. With Dawid Malan, Eoin Morgan and Brendon McCullum in their line-up, Middlesex look stronger this season and therefore our betting prediction is for Middlesex to come out on top.
Going into the game at Lords where there is likely to be a large vocal crowd, whoever wins the toss will have an edge and there is value looking into who will have the early advantage.
