KKR vs PBKS IPL 2024 Match 42 Prediction: Who Will Win Kolkata Knight Riders vs Punjab Kings?

Kolkata Knight Riders do have a massive historical advantage over the Punjab side with almost 70 percent wins over the years. KKR are also in terrific form this season, whereas PBKS are in dire straits.

Shikhar Dhawan's absence has hurt Punjab and their overseas stars have let them down as well. KKR's fortunes with their biggest buy Mitchell Starc is dwindling but their seasoned campaigners like Andre Russell and Sunil Narine have proved their worth again.

During the tenure of Gautam Gambhir as KKR captain, the Knights had an 11-4 advantage over Punjab, including a Final win in 2014. Given the match being played in Kolkata as well, the pressure will be immense on Punjab and we predict the Knight Riders to get another home victory today.
