Head-to-Head
The Capitals have won the last five matches between the two sides.
Dubai Capitals Form
The Capitals have won four of their last five matches, including a last-ball thriller over the Vipers in Qualifier 1.
The Vipers posted an imposing 189/7 off their 20 overs. Qais Ahmad (2/29) and Gulbadin Naib (2/25) were the pick of the Capitals bowlers.
Adam Rossington (44) and Gulbadin Naib (62 off 39) got the chase off to a good start. Sam Billings (38 off 16) kept his side on course for a dramatic five-wicket win off the last ball of the match.
Dubai Capitals Team News
The Capitals are in excellent form and will be tough to beat in the final.
Desert Vipers Form
The Vipers have lost three of their last five games, but a great team effort in Qualifier 2 against the Warriorz saw them rediscover their winning touch.
The Warriorz were under pressure at 76/4 in the 11th over thanks to superb bowling from David Payne (2/28), Nathan Sowter (2/27) and Khuzaima Tanveer (2/20). They ended their 20 overs on 162/7.
Alex Hales (47 off 29) and Max Holden (48 off 34) broke the back of the chase, leaving Dan Lawrence (28* off 18) and Sam Curran (34 off 15) to guide their side into the final with a seven-wicket win with 20 balls in hand.
Desert Vipers Team News
There are no injury reports from the Desert Vipers squad.
Verdict
I am backing Desert Vipers to win. I am also backing Max Holden to top score for Desert Vipers.
Gulbadin Naib is a good bet to top score for the Dubai Capitals.
