This is the first time that the teams will be facing each other this season, and both teams are coming from contrasting seasons.

So, it will be exciting to see who comes dominant with the win. Royal Challengers Bengaluru is in a better position and is currently sitting in the second position of the points table, where the Lucknow Super Giants have lost momentum and are in the seventh spot. Brimming with confidence after scoring eight wins in eleven matches and recent back-to-back wins, RCB will look to extend their supremacy.

As they meet for the first time this season, the momentum is with RCB, who have handed defeats to other dominant teams of the season, including KKR, DC, CSK, and PBKS. Bengaluru have dominated this season since the beginning with their strong performances and has also bounced back after a loss against Punjab, securing crucial wins in their last four games.

Meanwhile, LSG, with five wins in eleven matches, will play for one last time for playoff hopes and will look to finish strong. With the league stage ending soon, RCB and LSG, with their current form and fierce motivation, will seek those crucial match-winning points and get an upper hand on the points table. A win here will help both teams to fulfill their respective agendas.

LSG’s Probable Playing XI

Aiden Markram, Nicholas Pooran, Rishabh Pant (c & wk), Abdul Samad, Ayush Badoni, David Miller, Akash Singh, Digvesh Rathi, Avesh Khan, Mayank Yadav, Prince Yadav

LSG's team looks balanced, with all of their players being T20 specialists.
