Champions Cup 2024 Match 5, LIO vs PAN Match Prediction: Who Will Win Today's Match?

LIO vs PAN, Champions Cup 2024: Winner Prediction for Match 5 [X]

The Lions will face the Panthers in the fifth match of the Champions Cup 2024. This match will be played at the Iqbal Stadium in Faisalabad on September 16 at 10:00 AM IST. 

The Lions will be eager for a win in this match as they faced a convincing defeat in their first outing and are currently lingering at the bottom of the table. On the other hand, the Panthers have made a good comeback after losing their first match. They won their second match and will be eager to continue the momentum with a win in this match. They are currently in the third position in the points table but will be keen to climb up the ladder. 

How Will the Iqbal Stadium Pitch Behave?

The pitch at the Iqbal Stadium in Faisalabad looked flat, helping the batters play their shots freely and get full value for their shots. The batters dominated the clashes in the first four matches, especially during the first innings under the sun. However, the new ball bowlers did get some assistance from the track under the lights, and we can expect much of the same in this game.

LIO vs PAN: Predicted Toss Result

In the first four matches of the tournament, we saw that the team batting first won rather convincingly. While batting is the easiest under the sun, the new ball bowlers are getting some help under the lights. So, in continuation with the trend, we can expect the captain winning the toss electing to bat first.
