GUY vs SLK Dream11 Prediction: Guyana Amazon Warriors (GUY) will take on Saint Lucia Kings (SLK) in the Caribbean Premier League Qualifier 1 match. This big encounter is scheduled to start at 04:30 AM (IST) on Thursday, October 03, 2024 and will be held at the Providence Stadium in Guyana. The winner of this game will go straight to the mega CPL 2024 final, while the team losing this match will face Barbados Royals, who beat Trinbago Knight Riders in CPL 2024 Eliminator match, in Qualifier 2 match.
Guyana and Saint Lucia had an impressive league campaign, both finishing first and second on the table with identical records—seven wins in 10 matches. While the numbers suggest both teams have an equal chance of winning, Saint Lucia remains the underdog if we consider their two head-to-head games this season.
In the first match, the Amazon Warriors bowled out Saint Lucia for just 100 runs and chased the target within 10 overs. In the second encounter, Guyana again proved too strong, winning by a margin of 35 runs. So, definitely, Saint Lucia will be slightly under pressure ahead of this encounter.
