The Kolkata Knight Riders will play host to the Gujarat Titans at Eden Gardens in Match 60 of the Indian Premier League on Saturday. GT (1st) have won eight of their 12 matches this season, and our prediction is that they will beat KKR (8th) in this match.
The Kolkata Knight Riders’ momentum over the past couple of weeks was halted on Wednesday, when they suffered a six-wicket defeat to the Royal Challengers Bengaluru.
KKR are still on nine points after 11 games, four points below the top four with three games left to play, meaning that their Playoff hopes could be brought to an end if they lose this one.
The Knight Rides do not have a single batter ranked inside the top 15 leading run scorers in this competition. Kartik Tyagi has taken 13 wickets, placing him 12th in the Purple Cap standings.
Meanwhile, the Gujarat Titans have been in excellent form recently, and after crushing SRH by 82 runs in their last match, they can secure a Playoff spot if they win this one.
GT are on a four-match win streak. They have been led by Sai Sudharsen on 501 runs (second-highest run-scorer in the IPL), while Kagiso Rabada has 21 scalps (joint-most in the IPL).
The Titans have won their last three matches against this opponent, including their encounter last month by five wickets.

Our Gujarat Titans vs Kolkata Knight Riders Prediction
The Kolkata Knight Riders have been much better in the second half of this year’s Indian Premier League, but they’ve lacked firepower with the bat, which could be their downfall coming into this one.
That’s because the Gujarat Titans have reeled off five wins in a row and have been mightily impressive with the ball. GT have also won their last four games against KKR, and we fancy them to extend that record in this one. Our Gujarat Titans vs Kolkata Knight Riders prediction is Gujarat Titans wins.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
