Qualifier 2 of the 2026 Indian Premier League will see the Gujarat Titans taking on the Rajasthan Royals on Friday. RR have won three in a row coming into this one, and our prediction is that they will advance to the final by beating GT.
The Gujarat Titans were the best team over the second half of the group stage, winning six of their final seven games before suffering a crushing 92-run defeat to RCB in Qualifier 1.
Sai Sudharsan and Shubman Gill both struggled against RCB, but are still the second and fourth-highest run scorers in the competition, while Kagiso Rabada has the joint-most wickets (26).
The Titans have won six of their last 10 IPL matches and also defeated this opponent in their most recent encounter on May 9.
Meanwhile, the Rajasthan Royals snuck into the fourth place on the final day of the group stage, but delivered an incredible effort to beat the Sunrisers Hyderabad in the Eliminator on Wednesday.
Vaibhav Sooryavanshi blasted an astonishing 97 runs off just 29 balls to lead his side to victory, and he is now wearing the Orange Cap. Jofra Archer is the third-highest wicket-taker in the competition with 24 scalps.
RR have momentum on their side, having won their last three games. They’ve also won two of their last three against this opponent.

Our Gujarat Titans vs Rajasthan Royals Prediction
Over the final couple of weeks of the group stage, the Gujarat Titans looked like the team to beat in the competition, but they have endured a couple of poor performances, especially in their last match against RCB.
While the Rajasthan Royals finished fourth in the group stage, their performance against SRH showed why form isn’t the most important thing in the knockout rounds. RR will also have the advantage of having played on this surface on Wednesday, and we feel they will advance to this year’s final. Our Gujarat Titans vs Rajasthan Royals prediction is Rajasthan Royals wins.
