Dream11 Prediction: These two teams have been going through a tough season. Seattle Orcas look to have lost confidence, and they are unable to put up their best playing XI. The losing has become a habit now, and they have not been able to gain momentum in any game, which has cost them big defeats.
MI New York also have similar stories, but they have one win, which came against the Orcas. They registered a 7-wicket win. That will surely be on their mind, and they will have a psychological edge over the Orcas. That is why the match odds are slightly favoring the MI New York.
