Kolkata Knight Riders will hope for their first win of this campaign as they visit Gujarat Titans on Friday in the 2026 Indian Premier League (IPL). This match in Ahmedabad between the sixth-placed GT (W2, L2) and the 10th-placed KKR (L4, NR1) comes with our prediction of a home win.
The Titans are one of the five teams to have four points after Tuesday’s fixtures. They can move into the top four reckoning with a win here. The Knight Riders are the only team yet to win a match this IPL season.
After losing to Punjab and Rajasthan, Gujarat worked their way to a one-run win over Delhi and a seven-wicket win over Lucknow. They are once again dependent on the top three for runs, with Jos Buttler (176 runs, SR 158.55) leading their charge.
With the ball, Prasidh Krishna (ten wickets, ER 9.50) has been a revelation in the middle overs, although the return to form of Rashid Khan is encouraging.
Kolkata lost to Chennai by 32 runs on Tuesday to continue their winless start to the season. Their only point has come from an abandoned game.
Only Angkrish Raghuvanshi and Ajinkya Rahane have aggregated more than 81 runs for the KKR this season. With the ball, except Sunil Narine (ER 6.86), every other bowler has conceded more than 8 runs per over.

Our Gujarat Titans vs Kolkata Knight Riders Prediction
It has been a season of lows and more lows for KKR so far. They are struggling to unlock some of their expensive buys, while their regular star players from the previous campaigns are yet to kick in. After a slow start themselves, the Titans seem to have found their mojo as they have won their last two IPL games, albeit in contrasting ways.
Historically, Gujarat had an edge over Kolkata in this fixture. That’s why our Gujarat Titans vs Kolkata Knight Riders prediction is Gujarat Titans wins.
