Kolkata Knight Riders and Lucknow Super Giants will lock horns against each other at the Eden Gardens on Saturday (May 20). This is the final league match for both teams and they both are in the playoff race.
LSG are in a better place at the moment as a win can take them to as high as 2nd spot in the table. KKR are mathematically still in the race, but they will have win by a massive margin and then hope RCB and MI lose their matches in order to advance.

Kolkata Knight Riders: Nitish Rana (C), Rahmanullah Gurbaz, Venkatesh Iyer, Andre Russell, Sunil Narine, Shardul Thakur, Lockie Ferguson, Umesh Yadav, Tim Southee, Harshit Rana, Varun Chakravarthy, Anukul Roy, Rinku Singh, N Jagadeesan, Vaibhav Arora, Suyash Sharma, David Wiese, Kulwant Khejroliya, Mandeep Singh, Jason Roy (replacement for Shakib Al Hasan), Aarya Desai, Johnson Charles (replacement for Litton Das)

KKR Team News vs LSG: KKR do have injury issues as Umesh Yadav is carrying a niggle and is out of contention. Apart from that, they have a full squad available to play LSG.
KKR may give a go in order to qualify for the playoffs, but it looks highly improbable. Amid this, the Knight Riders may make a couple of changes for the final match. They may well be looking to bring someone like youngster Aarya Desai for the final game. Their usual overseas players also look set to retain their places.
Moreover, KKR will be keen to finish the season on a high with a win at home. But in order to qualify, they will have to win by a monumental margin. To overcome RR's NRR, KKR need a victory margin of 103 runs or more.
LSG Team News vs KKR: Lucknow Super Giants are in need of a victory. With CSK'a match happening earlier, they will get a clearer picture of their winning margin to achieve the 2nd spot.
LSG are set to play their strongest team for the match. They secured a fantastic victory against MI in the last match, and we may see them making only one change.
Deepak Hooda's inclusion in the last match didn't work well and Hooda can make way for Karun Nair, who came in as a replacement for injured KL Rahul.
