- Gloucestershire have beaten Kent on the previous five occasions in the tournament which includes this year's 5-wicket win at Bristol.
- Kent will be playing at their home ground - St Lawrence Ground - where they have won six of their last nine completed T20 matches.
- The arrival of Faf du Plessis will bolster Kent's already strong batting line-up that has the likes of Sam Billings and the in-form Bell-Drummond.
KENT vs GLO Weather Report
It is likely to be a cool and clear weather on Thursday evening with a gentle breeze blowing across the ground. Temperatures are expected to be in the range of 15-19 degrees Celsius. Humidity should be around 61-81% and the chances of precipitation are very low.
KENT vs GLO Pitch Condition
The St. Lawrence Ground has hosted three completed matches so far in this year's Vitality Blast and has seen scores of 150+ on five occasions (thrice by the side batting first and twice by the side batting second). This goes to show how good the wicket has been for batting and a similar surface is expected to be prepared for this game.
KENT vs GLO Toss Prediction
The toss-winning team has batted first and gone on to win in each of the three completed matches that have been played at this ground so far this season. The pitch has seemed to become a tad slower during the second-half of every game and so the team that wins the toss here on Thursday is likely to go with the trend of batting first.
Kent Team News & Key Players
KENT Team News
Kent Spitfires have roped in batsman Faf du Plessis for the remainder of the Vitality T20 Blast 2019. The South African skipper will be available for selection for Thursday's match against Gloucestershire and could replace fellow countryman Heino Kuhn at the top of the batting order. In the previous match against Surrey, Kent made three changes to their side - they replaced Mohammad Nabi, Adam Milne, Mitchell Claydon with Marcus O'Riordan, Matt Milnes and Imran Qayyum. Daniel Bell-Drummond and Zak Crawley will continue to open the batting while Fred Klaassen and Matt Milnes are likely to lead the team's bowling attack again.
KENT Key Players
Daniel Bell-Drummond:
With 305 runs in 10 matches, Daniel Bell-Drummond is the leading run-getter for Kent in this year's Vitality T20 Blast. The opening batsman has cracked three half-centuries in his last four innings. One of those came in the reverse encounter against Gloucestershire and the in-form batsman will be expected to make another 50+ score when the two teams face-off again.
Faf du Plessis:
The South Africa captain has scored 4903 runs in 204 T20s and Kent will bank on his vast experience when it comes to batting. The world-class batsman has a hundred and 29 fifties in the shortest format and he struck 55 runs off just 20 balls in his last outing while playing for Edmonton Royals at the recently concluded Global T20 Canada.
Hardus Viljoen:
He is currently the tournament's third-best bowler having picked up 18 wickets at an economy of 7.36. The South African fast bowler has taken seven wickets in his last four matches. Viljoen took 2-30 in the reverse fixture against Gloucestershire and he will be a big threat for them again.
Gloucestershire Team News & Key Players
GLO Team News
Gloucestershire made the just the one change to their side last time out against Somerset, dropping all-rounder Zak Chappell for another all-rounder Graeme van Buuren. The latter had a good outing with the ball in that game and he could be retained in the eleven for this upcoming encounter against Kent Spitfires. Michael Klinger, who played probably his final innings at the Bristol County Ground last time, will open the batting alongside Miles Hammond with wicketkeeper James Bracey slotted at number three. David Payne and Andrew Tye are likely to be Gloucestershire's new-ball bowlers.
GLO Key Players
Miles Hammond:
The local boy has scored the most runs for his team this season - 240 runs which includes a couple of half-centuries. The left-handed opener is having a strike-rate of close to 145 and has four good knocks in his previous five innings, including the 42-ball 54 against Somerset last time out.
David Payne:
The left-arm fast bowler has been the most impressive player for Gloucestershire in the bowling department having taken 12 wickets at a pretty good economy of 7.05. He returned figures of 2-25 from four overs in the reverse encounter against Kent earlier this month.
Andrew Tye:
With 11 wickets in 10 matches at an economy of 8.02, Andrew Tye is another key man in Gloucestershire's bowling attack. The Australian quick took 2-24 against Kent and is coming off 2-35 in the most recent encounter against Somerset at Bristol. The team will want him to make the early inroads into Kent’s batting line-up.
GLO Recent Form
Gloucestershire are currently second in the South Group standings with five wins, a tie, three losses and as many washouts from twelve league matches. They have been performing very well of late and are coming on the back of four wins in their last five completed fixtures. They played their previous match against Somerset last week at Bristol where they registered a comfortable 25-run victory. Prior to that, Gloucestershire secured a seven-wicket win over Hampshire before sharing points with Somerset in their next encounter which got abandoned due to rain.

Kent vs Gloucestershire Prediction
Kent and Gloucestershire have both looked impressive this season and both are strong contenders for a top-four finish at the end of the group stage. The latter clearly have the upper hand when it comes to the recent head-to-head record, having beaten the former in their last five attempts straight. Apart from that, they are coming into this game with the psychological advantage of having secured a convincing victory in the reverse encounter at Bristol earlier this month.
Kent, however, have the home advantage on their side and having won six of their last nine completed T20s here will surely give them plenty of confidence. Their batting has more firepower than that of Gloucestershire's and the signing of South African star batsman Faf du Plessis is going to further boost their performance with the bat. Kent may have been beaten by Gloucestershire last time but we are backing them to exact their revenge come Thursday.
