KKR vs GT Match Prediction - Predicted Winner of IPL 2023 Match 39

Kolkata Knight Riders will be hoping to carry on their winning momentum when they face defending champions Gujarat Titans at the Eden Gardens on Saturday (April 26). The Knight Riders beat the Titans in the reverse fixture earlier this season.

KKR are currently in the 7th position with 6 points in 8 matches, while GT find themselves 2nd in the table with 10 points after eight matches. It will be a monumental tie for the home team as another loss will leave no margin for error for them.

KKR vs GT IPL 2023: Match Prediction

It was a magical Rinku Singh knock which made KKR prevail over GT in the last meet between these two sides. Rinku hit 5 sixes in the last 5 balls to secure KKR a monumental victory earlier this season.

But since then, Kolkata have managed only one victory in five matches, while the Titans have rallied ahead with three convincing wins out of 4. As these two teams meet again, form is definitely on the Titans' side, and KKR will be aiming to get into a bit of a winning habit of their own.

The addition of Jason Roy has boosted KKR's batting, and the spinners have made their mark as well in the last game. Titans, on the other hand, will be trying to win their first-ever away trip at KKR, which will also take them to the summit of the IPL table.

Considering the squad balance and the current form, Gujarat Titans look the better side of two, but KKR can pack a punch as they hope the Eden Gardens crowd will be cheering for them, unlike the CSK match. We expect KKR to complete a double over GT and get back to the playoff contention.

KKR vs GT Head to Head in IPL

These two teams have met only twice in IPL. Gujarat Titans won the solitary meet last season, and KKR have won the earlier meet this season.
