San Francisco Unicorns Preview
Corey Anderson and his players would take inspiration from their win against Washinton Freedom in the last game. They punched above their weight to humble the table toppers and go into this game with confidence. It won't be an easy game, and Anderson would like a spirited show from his players.
Finn Allen and Jake Fraser-McGurk form a strong opening pair, and the side needs them to lay a strong platform. Sanjay Krishnamurthi played a match-winning knock in the last game, and he will look to add runs with Josh Inglis and Matthew Short in the middle order. Corey Anderson and Hassan Khan must do well in the death overs and add runs.
The bowling attack will face a big test in this game, and they need Brody Couch and Hassan Khan to deliver tight spells and early wickets.

Washington Freedom Preview
The Washington Freedom lost to San Fransisco Unicorns in their last league game by 6 wickets. It was the first loss for Steven Smith's team in an otherwise spotless campaign. They have dominated opponents in most games, with their batsmen tearing up bowling attacks. As they face the Unicorns again in this game, Smith and his men would look to even it out with a strong show.
Travis Head and Steven Smith have been consistent at the top, and the team expects an electrifying start from this pair. Andries Gous has done well at No. 3 and will look to build partnerships with Rachin Ravindra and Glenn Maxwell in the middle order. The side needs Obus Pienaar, Mukhtar Ahmed, and Marco Jansen to add quick runs in the lower middle order.
The bowling attack has done well for this side this season, and they expect a strong start from Marco Jansen and Jasdeep Singh at the start.

Pitch Condition
Batting Conditions
Pace Bowling
Spin Bowling
Grand Prairie Stadium, Dallas, is a small ground with a fast outfield. It allows the batsmen to free their arms and score quick runs. There is some assistance for the fast bowlers early in the game, and the spinners have struggled as the short boundaries make life difficult for them.
Toss: To Bowl
Most teams have tasted success at this venue bowling first. The conditions are challenging for batting at the start, and the wicket becomes better for bats as the game progresses. Hence, the side that wins the toss will look to bowl first and use the conditions.
SFU vs WAF
Winning Prediction
The San Francisco Unicorns have done well with the bat this year, but the side lacks the teeth in its bowling attack. Their bowlers face a test against the big hitters Washington Freedom has in the squad. Washington Freedom has the top order in good form, and all the players have made runs. The side has variety in their bowling attack, giving them an edge.
