Lucknow Super Giants registered an impressive victory in the last match over Punjab Kings. They have had a decent season but there has been a lack of killing instinct in the team. KL Rahul and his troops will be hoping to complete a double over RCB.
RCB's two-match winning run ended against KKR on Wednesday. They need to buckle up and come back to winning ways fast as further slump will create daylight between them and the top-four teams.
Lucknow pitch has been an ambiguous one and it will be a real test for both teams to analyze and execute their strategy. Given the squad balance and the form of the two sides, we believe LSG are favourites to win the match.
The two teams have met 3 times only in history. RCB won the two encounters last year, while LSG halved the deficit with their thrilling victory earlier this season.
