Nottinghamshire vs Worcestershire: Match Analysis
Nottinghamshire have shown character and played at a top level and we can expect so much from them. In their recent encounter, Nottinghamshire secured a 7-wicket win over Derbyshire via the DLS method in a 162-120 contest. In the meantime, Nottinghamshire have been impressive in recent games with only one defeat in their last four games, coming against Lancashire in the Vitality Blast. However, against Warwickshire/Birminghamshire, this team pulled off a 229-226 win, while their County Championship One game against Yorkshire ended in a 163-run win. Ahead of this game, Nottinghamshire have two points after three Vitality Blast matches this season, leaving them seated 8th in the standings.
Worcestershire will be hoping to do better in this game, having now lost two of their first three league games this season. In their opener, this team took on Lancashire and they scored 169 runs and ended up losing by 7 runs. However, this team showed a better performance against Yorkshire, pulling off a 201-135 dominant win but then struggled against Northamptonshire last time out by 31 runs. Ahead of this game, Worcestershire have won only once in four consecutive matches and sit 5th in the standings.

Liam Patterson-White has been exciting this season, and in 7 overs, he has taken 4/55, going at just a touch under 8 an over. In his three starts this season, Dillon Pennington had two impressive performances and currently leads this side’s wicket takers with 5 in 11 overs at 21.2. Lyndon James

Nottinghamshire vs Worcestershire Prediction
Nottinghamshire will not have it easy in this game, but it is worth counting on them. Looking at the level of performance they dropped against Derbyshire and other games, it is very clear they can compete at the top level, and playing at home in this way will be a big boost for them. In the meantime, Worcestershire losing last time out will demand them to play at a top level and they definitely will look to give their all here. However, the visiting team performances lately have not been promising nor convincing and it is just rough to trust them. Yet, they have been a tough side for Nottinghamshire, losing only once in recent meetings. This is a tough game to predict, but I feel the two teams will have their chances and a bet on many runs is a good option to consider with Nottinghamshire winning.
