The pitch conditions indicate that both the bowlers and the batters will have something good in it. It does not exactly have the potential to become a high-scoring thriller with chances of moderate scoring being high. Bowlers will have to be clinical with their lengths and to try and hit the proper areas. Batters could just take some time to settle in but it could become easy to bat on as the innings progresses.

Toss Winner	Middlesex
Match Winner	Sussex

If Middlesex win the toss and elect to bat first, then Sussex could put on a solid batting display and could even post a total above the 180-run mark.

Middlesex have not been at their absolute best with the bat and there is a higher possibility that they could falter in the run chase, leading to a victory for Sussex.
