THE PREDICTION
Essex come out the right end of a memorable nail-biter against Hampshire last time out to maintain their long unbeaten record at Chelmsford in red ball cricket and the onus is on them to back this up against bottom of the table Gloucestershire. The visitors can take heart from holding Lancashire to a draw in their most recent County Championship encounter in Bristol, but Essex at Chelmsford is arguably a tougher challenge, especially without the services of bowler David Payne due to England Lions duty. Essex will be without key bowler Sam Cook for the same reason, which makes their ability to take 20 wickets here questionable without another superhuman performance from South African spinner Simon Harmer, who took a career best 15/207 against Hampshire. With that in mind, back an Essex win but only via the draw no bet market.
