With the end of the group stage starting to come into view, the stakes are getting higher in every game with the sides at the top of the tables keen to retain the advantage to get a lesser side in the quarter finals.
Both sides in this game have their eyes firmly trained on the last eight and it would be a surprise if both Birmingham Bears and Derbyshire Falcons did not advance. That said, their focus will be purely on Edgbaston on Saturday with another two points up for grabs.
All cricket at Edgbaston is well ed and you are always guaranteed a noisy atmosphere. A Sunday afternoon in mid-July in the T20 Blast means this game will be even louder than normal!

Ahead of Friday evening's games, Sam Hain was one of only two batters in the North Group to have hit 400+ runs and he, along with Jacob Bethell, are likely to be viewed as the key wickets for the home side ahead of this match on Saturday afternoon.
With the ball, the experienced spin of Danny Briggs is having yet another triumphant T20 Blast season and his ability to bowl pacey spin deliveries from a great height will likely be tough to face again.
Cheered on by a partisan crowd, Birmingham Bears are a team full of confidence and they will fancy their chances in this clash.

After back to back wins over Leicestershire Foxes and Yorkshire Vikings, Derbyshire Falcons were deprived of the opportunity to make it three in a row as their North Group fixture against Lancashire Lightning was abandoned without a ball bowled.
Particularly with the bat, Derbyshire Falcons do not have the big name players as some of the other sides but they find themselves in fourth place, which would be enough to progress to the knockout stage, thanks to the likes of David Lloyd and Wayne Madsen.
With the ball, Samit Patel and Mohammad Amir are two of the most experienced T20 bowlers across the globe and in Zak Chappell and Pat Brown the Falcons have two pace bowlers approaching the peak of their powers.

The weather forecast is for extremely humid conditions and thick cloud throughout Sunday afternoon and early evening in Edgbaston. There is no threat of rain interrupting the match.
At this venue, we often see a dry pitch which offers hard and true bounce. We expect to see the stroke-makers going for their shots on a surface where a par score will be 180+.
Playing in front of a lively crowd at Edgbaston, it is very easy to see momentum take a game away from a side at this venue. We predict that both captains will look to bat first in this match.
Although Derbyshire Falcons have been in strong form, they are up against Birmingham Bears who have set the pace at the top of the North Group throughout this campaign. In front of their home fans, we are predicting a win for the Bears.
