DCP VS MIE Dream11 Team Prediction – Who Will Win?
These two teams have always produced tight contests. Even in this game, both are coming off a defeat in the last match and don’t have the momentum. Dubai Capitals know the conditions, as they are playing at their home venue. MI Emirates have a strong group of players, but performance-wise, they are struggling with the bat.

But still, if we compare these two sides, MI Emirates have a better bowling unit with more options. Their middle order is also very strong. Dubai Capitals need a good start with the bat, which they have lacked. But we believe MI Emirates are expected to win this game.
